Re: WeatherSix Screen Saver

The screen saver feature was added in the last release of WeatherSix at the
beginning of this month.

NOTE:
  a.. This feature really isn't designed to be a real screen saver that
would normally vary the displayed image to prevent damaging some types of
displays. Instead it is a way to continuously cycle between each of your
defined locations until stopped by pressing any button on your remote.

The information on how to create a screen saver was posted back on April 9th
by Daniel Sletten from Roku and there he states "- place the executable in a
folder called 'ScreenSavers' at the root level of a mounted media card or
network share."  When I tested the application, I only ran it from a mounted
compact flash card where it worked fine with no problems.

Here is a link to that thread....
