Re: So how do i stop a screensaver after I started one?

The process watcher plugin only shows processcreated RODFLA~1 when the screensaver is activated. Do i just add the .scr file extension to it, or is it a malfunction with eg?

Re: So how do i stop a screensaver after I started one?

So I would grab the name of the scr file with the process watched plugin right? For some reason when the screensaver is activated, it says a process activated is called RODFLA~1 this could be due to me implementing s custom video screensaver. Not sure tho

Re: So how do i stop a screensaver after I started one?

I am away from my computer, so I will not be able to try it right now, but Im pretty sure that the computer doesnt register it as an actual mouse movement, as I have already tried something similar to it.

I know I can stop a screensaver through mouse movement, but I was wondering if there was any way to stop one through eventghost, because I want it to be automated after a certain time the screensaver is activated

Re: How do I trigger an event when my TV is connected immediately?

First of all, Thanks alot for the help, I really appreciate it. The log registers the event simultaneously with when my tv is plugged into my computer. The problem is that Big picture takes a long time to run. How would I go about speeding this up?
