Screensaver via Demo - what am I doing wrong?
Hi all, I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, or that my system software (Win2k) is messed up, or if the Demo version of xatshow has a a limitation in spite of the information found at http://www.xat.com/xatshow/index.html In any case, I can open desktop properties, hit the Screen Saver tab, and choose the screen saver that I created with xatshow from the drop- down box... I then hit "Apply" and "OK" and everything looks fine. However, when I go back back into the Screen Saver tab (again), I find that (None) is the selected screen saver. Help? Thanks, John deVries Los Alamos, New Mexico |

At that point I hadn't tried anything other than slideshows / screensavers. I haven't been able to reproduce the difficulty; for that matter it only happened on my own machine - which, given the amount of installing and uninstalling of software and other general mucking about is probably as stable as... oh, let's say Windows 3.1 B-} In any case, I've been sufficiently impressed to buy the pro version. It was pretty amazing to do a very lazy copy of 84 pictures taken at the 2002 Kodak Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, put them into a folder, and then use the defaults to generate a disc that (when burned with Nero) worked directly and perfectly with my DVD player / TV combination. This includes, of course, the pictures I had neglected to rotate into the correct orientation - as I've noted, I was doing a really quick job to show someone the possibilities and speed involved. I think from the point where I started until the point the disc was in the DVD player was perhaps 10 minutes but certainly fewer than 15. Next I'm going to try to produce a coherent ordering of 70+ above-ground nuclear tests photos with Holst's "Mars, bringer of war" for the background music. John deVries Los Alamos, New Mexico |
