What's your favorite screen blanker...

[Tenacious]

... for standard graphics?


... for re-targetable graphics?

I use GarshneBlanker on my A1200 and A600. It has heaps of modules to choose from, a nice GUI to configure the settings with, and it works smoothly without crashing other applications like some blankers can (although there are some unstable third-party blanker modules which are best left out).

Garshneblanker.  Been using it since the days of my A500.  Use it now on my 4000 via RTG on my PIV, my 2000 with RTG on my Spectrum, as well as my 3000, 1200, and 500+.  When I get around to putting my 1000 back together, it will run it as well.

Another nice thing to have is a DPMS program.  I cannot recall the name or whence it came (probably AmiNet, do your own homework :razz:) but it is really nice to be able to put your SVGA monitor to sleep.

(Just saw Cammie's post.  I should not spend so much time on these posts, yeah?)

Yes, plenty of modules, some unstable and crappy.  I like the hot-key and mouse position features.  I wouldn't mind seeing some more recent developments for it, honestly.  The Random module is especially nice, as it will randomly pick an enabled module every time-out period.

My text blanker proudly proclaims "Amiga: Dead and loving it!"

I use MadHouse 2.60, which is great. It even accepts screen saver modules from other popular screen saver programs.

Still using MCP's screen blanker. OS friend and not a crash from a very long time.

On 68000 Amigas I simply turn the monitor off. But I remember mandelbrots!

Madhouse for me.

DPMS. I've never found screenblankers (other than which really blank the screen)  that interesting. Better save energy and making less heat when you're not using your computer.

Yes, I've been using this for years, too.  One of my favorites draws an elaborate maze with start and end points.  Then the Amiga solves the maze.  It's very cool in high res.

I also enjoyed the Matrix savers, especially when the movie had just been released.

I'll have to try Madhouse.

Can't remember which I used on my A4K (it's been a while).

Under MorphOS, I was using GLMatrix until recently, have now switched to Spikeball (it's a bit trippier).

Isn't Spikeball a game?

Since MCP's DPMS doesn't work at all for me, i'm using CGXDPMS.
 Though, i have yet to find a DPMS blanker that goes off when a new window opens, like in normal blankers. Has anyone found one?
