Screen savers that use DirectX don't work at the logon screen when no users are logged in. If a user is logged in and the workstation is just locked, it will use the user's screen saver, and DirectX screen savers (like Ribbons) will work fine :)


cool thanks for the explanation! here is my ongoing bug report for chrome on this screensaver issue. i dont really think its a chrome issue anymore. you can see the video requests happening with these sites though:

The windows logon screen saver is the screen saver that will show up when the system is at the logon screen with no users logged in (i.e. after a fresh reboot, or a full logout).


how come the full list of screensavers is not there? i cant seem to find ribbons for this setting. also ive never tested screensaver at full logout or fresh reboot but doesnt it normally just use the regular screensaver?

Just did a quick search and found this thread: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/j9trSWDFZAE. Sounds like Windows maybe thinks Chrome/Firefox are full screen because they have no caption bar?


thanks for the link i will give it a look over. ya i can produce it on chrome and FF and in either windowed mode or in a tab 'active' and visible. crazy shit and def driving me nuts. ]]> RE: screensaver not working https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/screensaver-not-working/?ID=fee5dd6f-0564-402c-a18a-f81120860b28#6 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 19:21:55 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/screensaver-not-working/?ID=fee5dd6f-0564-402c-a18a-f81120860b28#6 DisplayFusion Just did a quick search and found this thread: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/j9trSWDFZAE.

I've never run into that on my system before, so I can't offer much advice on that, sorry!

still want to know: "also, what is this 'screen saver at windows log on' feature about?" ]]> RE: screensaver not working https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/screensaver-not-working/?ID=fee5dd6f-0564-402c-a18a-f81120860b28#2 Sat, 13 Feb 2016 18:01:58 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/screensaver-not-working/?ID=fee5dd6f-0564-402c-a18a-f81120860b28#2 DisplayFusion it could also be the recent win10 update but im not seeing anything related to screensaver but then again it doesnt really need to.

also, what is this 'screen saver at windows log on' feature about?

ps you guys should add a lightbox feature to your site for embedded images. ]]>
