NextPVR has a built in screen saver which will display after a set period (if NextPVR is not in use). Enabling the screen saver will help prevent burn-in on your monitor or TV.

Set the screen saver type. Set it to None to turn off the NextPVR screensaver:

		CutOut Shows a moving portion of the screen
		RandomPhoto Displays a random slideshow from the configured picture folders.
		FixedImage Displays the fixed screen saver defined by the active Skin.
		Blank Shows a blank screen.

Set the required period of inactivity before the screen saver is activated.

Configuration options for Live TV.

Set the location to use for the temporary buffer files created when watching Live TV.

Choose if the rolling segments are based on time or the EPG. If it's set to 'EPG based', then pressing 'record' will keep the buffer and add it as a recording.

Miscellaneous configuration options.

When selecting an item to play in the music library set whether to play only the selected file, or to play the selected track and all remaining files in the directory .

When selecting an item to play in the music library set whether add to the current playlist or start afresh. The stop button clears the playlist.

If using a digital OTA EPG, set whether NextPVR should updates the listings while watching live TV. This can be helpful if a broadcaster changes a start time or swaps a show at short notice.

Set the default startup function, for example TV Guide, Live TV.

Set the default aspect ratio mode to use.

When, for example, browsing a "Movies" directory which has lots of subdirectories each containing a video set whether the fan art changes as you scroll down the list, or only when you enter the subdirectory.
