Description Dave Cohen 2004-11-05 10:48:06 UTC

The SlimServer lets you pick a brightness level when using the server, and a
brightness level when the screensaver kicks in.
The problem is I change the brightness from my remote at different times during
the day, but the screensaver brightness I can adjust only from the server web
interface.
I'd like an option which is effectively, leave the brightness unchanged when
entering screensaver.

Thanks.

I think there is already a setting for this.  in the player settings, under
display.  the setting for "adjust brightness automatically" should take care of
this.  when set to manual, it shouldn't be dimming I believe.

Dean,

Yes I believe you're right.  Sorry about that.

Comment 3 Blackketter Dean 2004-11-10 09:10:31 UTC

I'm reopening, since we should probably allow the user to change the screensaver brightness via the 
remote. (i.e. adjust the brightness without waking from the screensaver)

it seems that brightness doesn't bounce out of screensaver currently.  what
could be done is only adjust brightness for the screensaver while its on, and go
back to the previous brightness when leaving the screensaver.

update brightness during screensaver

skip wakeup() when brightness key is used.  This allows the server to use the
brightness command to update idleBrightness.  This allows a user to adjust the
screensaver for idle or playing without affecting the standard brightness for
either mode.

Yes!  Go for it!

This bug was marked resolved in Slimserver 6.1, which is several versions ago.  If you're still seeing this bug, please re-open it.  Thanks!
