I am asking this here and not in the Feature Request, because on a normal PC i could use the Systems Screensafer. Is there an Option in the RPi Version?
I am using QLC+ in a fixt Installation and the screen ist mostly unused.
Screen just goes black would be an option, but not my favourite.
I would like to have a simple small Logo apearing on a black screen in random positions after a set amount of minutes. Nothing with a load too heavy.
Could be the QLC+ Logo by default but changed by user.

Not implemented inside QLC+

You can install QLC+ (package provided) in a standard RaspiOS image with desktop environment and setup the screensaver there.

Hm, that’s right. To be honest I didn’t think of that.
I like the method of only QLC+ running with no unnecessary Background tasks a lot. From a stability and maintenance standpoint.
I will give it a try on my Pi3 and see what performance impact the PiOS has.
Thank you so far.
