697213 2008-08-14 08:38:00 Hi all,

I've noticed recently that my screensaver hasn't been working. I narrowed the problem down to something to do with Cyberlink Powercinema. I use this program to record TV on my PC so would like to be able to use it and have my screensaver work (i use my pc as a clock lol.) When I first install powercinema, the screensaver's fine, but after I shedule and record a program, the screensaver stops kicking in. I have uninstalled and reinstaled a couple of times already, but every week (after I record Outrageous Fortune lol) the screensaver mysteriously stops kicking in. So, I uninstall and reinstall powercinema, and viola, screensavers good again.... untill after the next recording (I think.)
Any suggestions?

697214 2008-08-14 08:47:00 Is there a setting in PowerCinema to turn the screensaver on or off during recording?? I would have thought the screensaver would've sapped resources that could've been used for recording/encoding video. jwil1 (65)
697215 2008-08-14 09:34:00 Oh, I'm not worried about the screensaver during recording. Its just after recording, it wont come back on. springa886 (10558)

What a helpful post :illogical

but I agree, I'd say there's an option in powercinema causing it to turn the screensaver off or something
