    Hi, I was wondering if it's possible to set an automatic screensaver to come on after a short period of inactivity on my Z8? For example I have an Android TV box where I can go to the Settings and link any folder of photos that I have selected from my Google photos to use as a screensaver. Thanks for your advice.

    There is a way to manually do screensaver with your own selected pictures.

    1. Put the pictures you want to show as screensaver in USB.

    2. Insert the USB to your box and go to File Manager --> Store --> USB --> the folder you saved your pictures

    3. Open up one of the pictures by pressing OK in the RCU

    4. When picture is shown, press OK button again for about 3 to 5 seconds and let go.

    5. Screensaver is started

    To be honest, its more like slide show function but you can use it as screensaver if you wish, until actual screensaver is added.

    The thing is, with this method, I couldn't find a way to change time setting of pictures changing. It's quite fast.

    You can also do this via SAMBA, not just USB.

    In case you are not sure what SAMBA is, follow below link.
