Description

Please consider to add an option to pause the computation while the computer is on full screen (such as playing a game or watching a movie). I want BOINC to continue computing while the computer is on use, but if it is on full screen action, it will suspend.

Please check the <exclusive_app/> and <exclusive_gpu_app/> options in the core client configuration (cc_config.xml) file, which do exactly what you want.

Easier adding of the exclusions will come through the Advanced local preferences menu in BOINC 7 (if you dare, you can test v7.0.3 at this time).

By the way, if you want to add ticket, don't own them. You're the reporter. Any developer who wants to take on such a job, will eventually be the owner. Now you state that you will fix this yourself. Which you won't.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
