A Screensaver is a program on your computer that runs after a certain amount of time, with the intention to "save your screen" by reducing burn-in reduction. This is usually done with fast moving patterns and dark backgrounds.

Modern computers don't usually have screensavers (or will just turn the screen off) as burn-in has become less of a problem for LCD screens than CRTs. However, many still use them for their looks or nostalgic value.

The screensavers listed here have are of value for tennis: either as useful Media Generators, pseudo-plugins or just cool stuff to put in your video.
