| 189184 | 2003-11-04 08:24:00 | Hi, I'm trying to turn an awsome fight scene video clip from the matrix reloaded into a screensaver (for windows :|). I've tried like 6 programs now, all shareware and they do an ok job, but they always have 'you must pay for this' text on the final screensaver. You won't believe how long it takes to find a decent program, its a royal pain in the ass. So.. has anyone managed to come across a freeware program that will import an avi file and make it play fullscreen as a screensaver? Thats all I want it to do. Thankyou! |

| 189187 | 2003-11-04 10:06:00 | The XP Video PowerToy requires WMP9 :| Shame I won't be installing that piece of spyware, M$ DRM managed, worthess excuse of a software program. :) But thanks for the suggestion. Keep the ideas coming. | PoWa (203) | ||
| 189188 | 2003-11-04 20:52:00 | Spyware? What spyware? I don't allow it internet access using a firewall. And I also turn off the settings that are internet related in the options, though there are those invisible things like sending off the list of DVDs you play... wonder if that works through a system service and not WMP. I'm sure I've got an old cover disc (think around 1998) that had a free, full screen saver creator program... though I'm not sure if it'd support video. |
