[TUTORIAL] Screensaver Example - docwra - 2018-07-17

I just uploaded an example Add-on for new screensavers, its pretty simple and based on Sphere's old test Add-on that has been broken for a while.

I updated it and added a nice background.

Hopefully this will help any new developers start making some new Screensavers. My motivation for this was to write some more Wiki Tutorials for each Add-on type in Kodi.

I'll write up the tutorial here soon:

Thanks for quick and dirty example.
Basicly making custom WindowXML window, streaching image on full screen and done.
Not bad, not bad at all.

Yep all very easy to do when you know how Wink

Hopefully these guides take that first step away from newbie developers. Sometimes the first step is the hardest.
