Solution for those wanting to create a screensaver for Mac
Posted: Thu Jun 20, 2024 5:25 am
Hi
As it is not at all easy to find a way to create and run good screensavers on MacOS
I just thought I would share the best solution I have found for
adapting my gPhotoShow screensavers.
I use the gPhotoshow functionality to record a set of video chapters on Windows.
Then I use the free opensource mac screensaver called Aerial
to play the videos.

Obviously I lose a LOT of the gPhotoshow functionality,
but Aerial has other cool features.
For instance it will play a Spotify playlist over the videos,
and it comes with some cool drone footage too.
All the best ~ NDV
