Front Row

Any idea why Front Row would give me a blank, black screen every 30 seconds? I just noticed this recently. I haven't updated anything. What would cause it to do this and is there a remedy?

I would need a 2nd install in order to do that. As it is, this install is running natively on a partition on its own. I think I may have found the problem. It seems that by turning off the screen saver option in Front Row it now seems to run the way it should. Video and audio stream just fine.
