Question Sage Screen Saver problem?

I almost never see the Sage Screen Saver, so I don't know what is normal for it. Today, I had client in full screen mode, I then went into detailed setup to view something and then forgot about the client. When I returned I had the Sage Screen Saver running in the background and the detailed setup window in the foreground. I then hit the cancel button, which did make the detailed setup screen go away. However, I then was left with nothing but the Sage Screen Saver running which really left me confused. What didn't the Sage Screen Saver exit when I selected the cancel button? I had to go back to the server to figure what where I was (home menu). Once that was done, I hit the home key and got rid of the screen saver. Has anyone else encountered this type of issue? Is it a bug?

No-haven't seen that. Fell asleep. Woke up. Screen saver was going. Hit a key on the remote or hit a key on the keyboard and screensaver goes away.

After seeing Gerry's post, I recreated the problem and did some testing. It appears that only certain keys will kick it out of Screen saver mode. Only the right arrow key of the 4 surrounding the OK key on the remote did it. I believe this is a problem but will wait to see what release 2 does before reporting it.

Speaking of the SageTV screen saver I have another note about it. There should be an option to turn the screen black instead of having the SageTV logo floating around. Lately I've had a few stability issues in my Sage box due to a troubled hard drive and the problem is that Sage/the computer would lock up with the screen saver on but since the machine was hung just leaving the logo in one place for many hours. If I had left my TV on this could have been a problem.
