Video screensaver!

I have some HD videos of saltwater aquaria that I use sometimes as a screensaver during a party (when I don't want people watching something else).  It would be great to add a video and/or a video folder as a screensaver option to the wdtvlive device.  It would do at least as good a job at saving the screen and since the wdtvlive device is primarily a video device, it doesn't strike me as difficult and/or an illogical idea.  Just like with a photo screensaver, an auto-loop is appropriate for a video screensaver, either the same video (for a single video option) or the next video (for a video folder option).  If you wanted to get really fancy, you could allow users to manually select individual video files all over local (?) storage as 'screensavers' under the Options dialogue, but perhaps that's just overkill.
