CEC "screen off" does not kick in when video is paused.

  • Hi,

    When pausing a video I sometimes forget I was even watching due to some interruption. When returning I see the TV is still on while I like it to be off.

    This is different from when a movie ends and you walk away, then I will find that my TV is turned off (after 10m) while LE is still idling.

    Does anyone have an idea what this might be ?

    Thanks in advance

  • Pause = You're in the middle of something and the system is still in use (so dim or show the screensaver)

    Ended = You're done with it and the system is not being used (so turn the screen off)

    There is a "Turn Off" screensaver in the Kodi repo. Install that as your screensaver and use the screensaver when paused.
