It looks like whatever media you put into your playlist. there's no interface for it or anything, you just edit the .ini and when it runs it plays the playlist. Meanwhile, I've verified that it works as intended inside Hyperspin itself, but as soon as you go into an emulator, things get broken. In my SNES emu: works as intended except that game audio does not get muted. In Playstation 1 and PSP emu: Screensaver does not detect any button presses on gamepad and launches after set time, regardless of what you're doing. Must use mouse or keyboard to exit. Mame: Screensaver pops up behind the emu, so you can't see it, but you can hear it. Unfortunately, the PS1/PSP issue is a dealbreaker. I'd still use this if it could be made to toggle itself off when an emulator starts up, (or if it could toggle the delay time to infinite when an emu launches, then back to user setting when returning to hyperspin). I'm sad, this thing is so *almost* awesome...

Okay, this is weird... I shut down Hyperspin and then changed the screensaver delay to 300 seconds because I thought maybe 120 was too short and was contributing to the problem. I shut down and restarted my machine and now it's working! ...Almost. At this point it seems to work correctly as long as I'm still within Hyperspin's interface. When I launch a game, it still works EXCEPT that it does not mute the game sounds. I'll have to test it some more, but I have a theory that the issue with it not responding to button presses on my gamepad may be emulator specific. The first time I was running a PS1 game, this time I was running a SNES. I'll let you know if I see different behavior depending on which emulator is running. But I have to tell you, even if this is as good as it gets and we can't fix this one issue, I LOVE THIS APP! It is the icing on the cake for my Hyperspin! I threw together a folder with 4gbs of short animations, game trailers, music videos, 1950's drive-in ads and peppered it all with about 30 Hyperspin intro videos. And it is pure awesomesauce! Now I like my system as much when I'm not playing it as when I am! LOL THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS!

This looks amazing sedte, I can't wait to get it working! Noob question: I've got everything set up as per your instructions, but what do I do with the .ahk file? Right now I just have it in the same folder as Screensaver.exe. Unfortunately it's not working correctly. I have it set to 120 seconds just for testing. The screensaver launched while I was playing a game! It does not mute Hyperspin, and it won't respond to button presses on the joypad, I had to hit esc on the keyboard to get rid of it. Otherwise, it does launch, and it does play my playlist in random order, so that's all excellent!
