Hi,

I'd like to watch Photos screen saver when playing audio under UI2, but without that audio playing screen that overlays photos on UI2.

Can I switch it off somehow (I'm using Fiirechief)?

Thanks in advance,

regards,

Bulek.

Sure... just set your selected music playing then use the 'back' button to hide the UI2 menu bar.

If you wait long enough, it just goes away on its own, too! BTW, is this configurable in anyway? Would be nice if I could turn this off because I like seeing the playlist on screen. Each time it goes away I have to hit menu then cancel to get it back. If just hitting back gets rid of it immediately, then can't it be left on permanently so that people can turn it off manually, and those that want it on permanently don't have to keep hitting menu/cancel?
