1. If the tivo is paused for x amount of time it blanks the screen.
2. If left in a menu for x amount of time it returns to livetv.
3. for MythMusic and other static stuff, maybe have it so either the visualization goes full screen after x amount of time or the screen blanks after x amount of time.

i like how a lot of set-top box DVD players have the logo of the manufacturor "bounce" around the screen for the screensaver... could very easily do something like this with the MythTV logo (or a logo set from the theme itself would prob be best) ...

i haven't done much with this, as my FE is setup to blank the screen after X amount of time (whatever the defaults are for X.org in gentoo) and i'm pretty religious about turning off my 27" CRT (i could care less about the stupid TV, it sucks, but i DO care about my electric bill!!) ...

obviously, the above could easily be done with an actual X screensaver, but i have seen tons of posts with people having problems with remote button presses != keyboard activity, so it may be better to do something really simple within myth ...
