how can I get back drops to auto start as screen saver?

I think the best you can do on the RokuTV is to enable Auto Power Savings. (Settings/System/Power/Auto Power Savings).

You may also have to disable the Screensaver under Settings/Themes.

Power Savings enabled, and I still cannot enable backdrops auto-start. It just keeps stating to enable power saving.
