Backdrops Activation time
I believe Backdrops will only activates after 30 or 60 minutes of idle. Is there a reason for the long times? I'd like to see it activate quicker similar to the screen saver.

Hitghedlin,
Just a heads-up about the backdrop picture interval: if you try to set it to 1 minute, it will automatically switch back to 10 minutes. This is on purpose to help prevent screen burn-in, especially on TVs like TCL Roku models.
Roku recommends sticking with the 10-minute default to keep your screen safe.
Also, for extra protection, Backdrops detects if you have an OLED screen (or if it can’t tell) and sets the rotation to every 5 minutes instead.

Thank you!
