v34 - video playback - screen gets black (standby mode starts)

Post by masterjp »

I played a video in xnview and after the typical standy timer the screen gets black.
Is it possible to add a switch somewhere in settings menu to stop dimming the screen?

There is already a switch for slideshows, which does the same.
In my opinion, it would be enough to have just one button for slideshows and video playback that controls both functions.

In VLC, the automatic screen off option is disabled while the video is playing. This is how it should be in XnView, without any additional icons to press.
