The classic bouncing DVD logo screensaver for WoW: kicks in when you go AFK, changes color on every bounce, and counts corner hits.

Description

The legendary bouncing DVD logo, now in your World of Warcraft UI.

Go AFK in a city, mid-flight, or while waiting on a dungeon queue. The iconic DVD logo appears and bounces around your screen, changing color on every wall hit.

And when it lands a perfect corner hit, you get a notification in chat. With a counter, because you will want to brag.

Features

  • Idle detection : the logo appears after a configurable delay of no input.
  • Color change on every bounce with 8 vibrant colors.
  • Corner hit counter for that 1-in-a-million perfect bounce.
  • Fully configurable : idle delay (0 to 300s), speed (50 to 400 px/s), size (32 to 200 px).
  • Lightweight : pure Lua, no dependencies, zero impact in combat.
  • Detects mouse, keyboard, gamepad, character movement, casting, and combat as activity.

Commands

  • /dvd : opens the configuration window.
  • /dvd show : forces the logo to appear immediately.
  • /dvd hide : hides it manually.
  • /dvd reset : restores default settings.

Configuration

The /dvd window lets you adjust :

  • Idle delay : seconds of inactivity before the screensaver triggers. Set to 0 to disable.
  • Speed : how fast the logo travels across the screen.
  • Size : height of the logo in pixels (width is computed from the aspect ratio).

How activity is detected

The screensaver disappears as soon as you do any of the following :

  • Move the mouse.
  • Press any key (your bindings keep working, the addon listens without intercepting).
  • Press a gamepad button.
  • Start moving your character.
  • Cast a spell.
  • Enter combat.
