Anyway to create a “start screensaver now” short cut or program a hot key on the new remote?

by DEEPfrom1

I always play Spotify on the shield and activate the screen saver for some sweet images.

I wish there was a hot key on the remote or a home screen shortcut.

Anyway to start the screen saver quicker than going to settings, blah, blah, start now?

EDIT This is not the shield subreddit... leaving it up anyway!

With Button Mapper you can do this.

I went to Settings > Screen Saver > Stay Awake on Music and switched it to off and now my screensaver comes on after 5 mins when before it didn’t come on at all. This works for me casting audio from my iPhone.

Did you end up finding a solution to this?

Anyone figured out how to do this yet? I'm using button mapper but it's not a default option

So no simple solution for this, like a button or quick menu link in Actions?

I also tried Google Assistant but with no success, it just searches for youtube videos about starting screensavers :|
