Re: Change on Startup

Hello,

Add an event, Recurring every XX minutes or whatever you wish. Just make sure the option "If operation ...

Re: Bug in app

Hello,
the shortcut "Start gPhotoShow Screen Saver" is correctly linked to c.\windows\gPhotoShow64.scr
That file is the gPhotoShow Pro screen saver. Normally windows runs it since scr is a file extension for executable files just like exe
It is possible that your system's antivirus is preventing you ...

Re: Creating Groups Problem

Unfortunately it is not possible, WallpaperSlideshow only handles 1 group at a time (or all).
The checks in the menu are checks because in a context menu it is not possible to use radio buttons.

Hello,

Re: Monitor off/on kills gphotoshow

If you are running gPhotoShow Pro as slideshow maker as explained in the " Digital Photo Frame " article then you should have no problems when monitor is turned off and no issues to start the program.

When using gPhotoShow as a screen saver, Windows controls the program's startup and kills it when ...

Re: Monitor off/on kills gphotoshow

Hello,
It's a normal windows behavior. From some Windows 10 update when monitor is turned off by power management Windows kills the screen saver. As far as I know there is nothing to do to prevent this behavior.
If you are running gPhotoShow on unattended computer you could run it as Slideshow Maker ...

Re: Image display time keeps increasing

Using OpenGL or DirectX a quick Fade transition is always performed even if you disable all transitions and the next image is preloaded after an image is displayed, this should allow for more precise timing

Re: Image display time keeps increasing

I checked the log but I didn't see any problem, the first image was displayed at 7:30:0 the last at 11:25:33
Since you don't use HW accelerated transitions gPhotoShow doesn't preload images. On each image loading and processing takes 1 or 2 seconds and image after image the delay reached 30 seconds.

Re: Image display time keeps increasing

As I wrote before the delay can't "accumulate", gPhotoShow starts the timer after a picture has been displayed, next image is preloaded as soon as possible so the delay should be minimal. Without an extended log I can't guess the reason of the delay you experienced.

Re: Image display time keeps increasing

I don't quite understand the problem. gPhotoShow changes the image after a certain time interval from the last change, not at a specific time. If you set a time of 5 minutes, it will be 5 minutes from the last image plus the time needed to load and process the image. Since the photos come from a NAS ...
