    Other Screensaver never goes on, option ignored

    Even with the option that prevents screensaver/hibernation disabled (unchecked), the screensaver still will never come on with DVDFab 9.1.5.9 converting or ripping. This used to work in 9.1.4.5.

    I have a plasma screen and this is a critical problem. If I forget to turn off my display and walk away for a while, DVDFab will permanently damage my plasma screen with burn-in without the screensaver coming on.

    Does anyone know if there's a work-around?

    [no need to talk about how there is no burn-in on LCDs. I got one of the last great Panasonic plasma TVs before they stopped making them, and its picture quality is superior .. ]

    Problem resolved. The system must have gotten stuck with the screensaver off from one of DVDFab's crashes, when the option to disable screensaver was still ON). It's working after a reboot.

      The option works normally for me on win7 64. Check the settings in your power profile, some software can change them without telling you.

      /////Didn't see your earlier post, I had this up while testing it.

        Thanks - see above: problem resolved after a reboot. Screensaver was stuck in OFF position after DVDFab had crashed with "prevent screensaver" option enabled.

          Glad it is OK now. I am experiencing pixel envy re: your plasma. More accurately, refresh envy.
