I need simple screensaver which would allow me to:

  • play videos (using mplayer)
  • show slideshow from pictures in given directory
  • lock the screen (optional)

Screensaver should be easy to configure (parsable config file), and simple. Probably written in Python.

Xscreensaver seems very complicated, old, hard to extend and configure.

Thank you.

Why would you need it written in Python specifically? – NlightNFotis Aug 10 '12 at 8:08
Simply because I like Python. But it is not strict requirement. – marcinpz Aug 10 '12 at 8:16
