Here's a good read from HTG!
Why Screen Savers Are No Longer Necessary That's a complete load of BS. A LOT of people still have plasmas that they hook up to an HTPC and need a screen saver (including me). Also AMOLED and OLED screens are almost just as prone to image retention/burn in as plasma. Look up all the complaints about image retention on the new OLED TV's. And also, LCD's can suffer from image retention as well, but it takes more time. The LCD on my Dell Venue 11 Pro has a dark bar running cross the bottom of the screen because the previous owner left the taskbar up all the time. Image retention is real, people.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help regarding other screen saver options btw. I use the "ribbons" one on my HTPC hooked up to plasma.
