No Screensaver menu choice

Just got the 4K stick about 2 weeks ago, so it should have the latest software.  I'm trying to disable the screensaver.  I looked up the solution on the internet and it is supposed to be Home -> Settings -> Screensaver, then disable it or choose wait time = Never. However, I don't have a Screensaver menu choice under Settings.  There is one under Themes, but that just allows you to choose a different screensaver.

Help?!

  • You apparently found some outdated info.

    Try:

    • Settings / Wallpapers & screen savers
    • Screensaver Start Time (Under "Advanced Settings")
    • Disable screensaver

    At least that's what I'm seeing now on my Ultra 4800 running Roku 13.0.

    If I recall correctly, when there was a Themes menu item, in addition to options for selecting a theme, the selection for Screensaver start time/disabling was found by scrolling further down the screen.

      Hi - The menu config was slightly different for me: Home -> Theme -> Screensaver start time -> Disable screensaver.  However, that should do it, so thanks for your guidance!

      I'm not finding the settings for the screensaver either. There is a "screensavers" option which just shows me the screensavers available, no settings. There is no "wallpapers and screensavers" option at all.

        Ataraxis_Nika, under the "Theme" settings, you should see the "Screensaver start time" option as well as wallpaper settings.  Is there something else you're looking for?
