Does that machine get used for anything else? If it's just for displaying the slideshow, you could try out CloudShow instead. It will show the slideshow website full screen and won't be affected by the system idle state. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/screensaver-only-running-a-few-minutes-before-closing/?ID=dc8f83f9-dd6e-4595-81da-2720c0567352#3 Tue, 18 Dec 2018 16:09:01 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/screensaver-only-running-a-few-minutes-before-closing/?ID=dc8f83f9-dd6e-4595-81da-2720c0567352#3 DisplayFusion It just closes to the desktop. I'm not sure how long before, but maybe 3-5 minutes. Then it will start up again after the 5 minute delay. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/screensaver-only-running-a-few-minutes-before-closing/?ID=dc8f83f9-dd6e-4595-81da-2720c0567352#2 Tue, 18 Dec 2018 15:11:20 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/screensaver-only-running-a-few-minutes-before-closing/?ID=dc8f83f9-dd6e-4595-81da-2720c0567352#2 DisplayFusion Seems to be working ok for me here when I test. When it closes on your machine, does it close to the desktop, or just a blank screen? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/screensaver-only-running-a-few-minutes-before-closing/?ID=dc8f83f9-dd6e-4595-81da-2720c0567352 Mon, 17 Dec 2018 17:56:11 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/screensaver-only-running-a-few-minutes-before-closing/?ID=dc8f83f9-dd6e-4595-81da-2720c0567352 DisplayFusion I found this thread, but it was never finished and won't let me reply:

Mine is doing the same thing. Here is the page I'm trying to show:
https://stationdentalgroup.com/arvada-screensaver

It just shows a few slides and then closes the screensaver. Any ideas? I'd like to use this same kind of page for my computers at home, but only if it works of course ]]>
