DVD Screensaver — The Bouncing Logo, Full Screen
The bouncing DVD logo is the most-watched screensaver in history, and the reason is simple: everyone wants to see it hit the corner exactly. This is that, full screen, with the corner hits counted so you have proof.
What people use the dvd screensaver for
Wait for the corner hit
A perfect corner hit requires the logo's position to align on both axes at once. Depending on the starting position and screen dimensions it can take minutes or literally never happen. That is the whole appeal.
Ambient screen filler
Leave it on a display during a break, a stream intermission or an event — familiar, hypnotic and requires nothing installed.
Show why it is hard to hit the corner
A nice illustration of a maths idea: the logo only reaches a corner when its two independent bounce cycles happen to sync, which depends on the ratio between screen and logo dimensions.

Frequently asked questions
How long until it hits the corner?+
It depends on the screen size, the logo size and where it started — and for some combinations, never. The logo needs to arrive at the same instant on both axes; if the horizontal and vertical bounce periods share no useful common multiple from that starting point, it will bounce forever without ever landing a corner.
Do I need to install anything?+
No. Everything on whitescreen.studio runs inside the browser tab you already have open. There is nothing to download, no extension and no account.
Is it free?+
Yes, all of it, with no sign-up and no usage limit.
