RE: My HTTPC - showing pictures

["Paul Gordon" <paul_gordon@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mark,

If using Windows XP, there is a photo slideshow screensaver, which can be
pointed at a root folder and will "randomise" through everything
below it...

- I put "randomise" in quotes because, having been using it now
for quite a
while, - I have 4 PC's in the house set to run the slideshow screensaver
after 10 mins, I'm thinking that I'm definately noticing a pattern in the
photo show, and I seem to be recognising particular sequences...

Also, the screensaver occasionally errors when exiting, so if you do find a
better solution, then please let me know... :-)

Paul G.
