Description:

This is a KDE slide show screensaver which uses OpenGL for smooth zooming and crossfades. It has a simular feel to that of the MacOS X slideshow screensaver. Note that since this uses OpenGL textures for the images, you will need significant amounts of texture memory on your card for this to work well (especially for large images).

I would appreciate any _constructive_ input. I changed some of the features of the screensaver: The images used to have a vignette effect, and you could select the size of the image; now the image is always sized so that it fills the screen. Which is preferable? Should it be an option? Does the incremental jpeg loader work? Does it eliminate the lag between images?

Changelog:

- Added support for png images. They are loaded incrementally just like the jpegs, so skipping shouldn't be a problem. please report any problems.

- Stability improvements. Works on both greyscale and color jpeg's now (before it would crash on greyscale jpegs). Gracefully handles unmounting of drives which images are stored on (i.e. it doesn't crash when it can't read an image). Added an option to display the image name in the lower left hand corner. Also, the screensaver no longer always zooms towards the center of an image. It can zoom to any portion of the image, but gives preference to the top half for portrait oriented images (since that is where the center of focus normally resides in portraits). Didn't update the preview cause I'm too lazy.

- Added line to link to libjpeg. For some reason it worked on my machine without it.

- Image directory selection will now traverse into any subdirectories up to depth 1. This means you can effectively use multiple directories for source images by creating a directory with symlinks to your image directories.

- Much faster load up time, much smaller memory footprint, and uses much less CPU time than before.

- Implemented a incremental jpeg loader that (hopefully) prevents jerkiness between images. Movement should be smooth, unless of course, you set the delay time to something very small and your machine cannot finish loading the next image before it is due for display.

Hi,

Am I right if I think that the Picture in your Screenshot ist taken in a salt mine in Poland.

I don't know the name any more but it must be somewhere near the Town Starachowice an it is really impressive in there.

Could you pleas tell me the name of that salt mine?

This is so great. I'm glad you updated this. I remember trying to install your last version, but it wouldn't compile with the new qt. but now it works beautifully. This is what kde needed. This needs to go into the next version of kde. I hope i'm not pumping this up too much, but it really is awesome. Thanks for posting again, and keep up the good work.

Check to make sure that you have libjpeg and libjpeg-devel installed. I think that should fix your problem. I will try to add a check for that into the configure script so that this gets caught earlier.

libjpeg was installed. It�s the first time i have such error messages with jpeg.

When I see the preview in the setup dialog, it looks nice and normal. When I run it, however, the first image just fades to black with no other images fading in.

Hmm, thats strange. This would mean that the first image loads fine, but all images after that either don't load correctly off of disk, or don't get uploaded to the graphics card correctly. This could possibly happen if you don't have much texture memory, or the size limit for GL textures on your card is smaller than the size of the images being loaded. It might work in the setup window because the size of the GL window is smaller, and therefore uses less video memory (therefore leaving more for the textures). Can you try it with smaller images to see if that fixes it?

Yeah, using smaller pictures fixes the problem, but its not because of my graphics card not having enough memory. Its a GeForce4 w/128 megs-o-ram

Thats strange, since I have the same card. It could be a driver or XFree issue. Are you using the NVidia drivers? Other than that I don't really know how to help, I'm by no means an expert at this. I am pretty sure that there is an OpenGL texture size limit, which is card dependent. But since I have the same card, that doesn't make sense.

At some time in the future I was considering implementing tiling so that large images are split up into multiple 64x64 texture tiles. This would ensure that they show up (I think), since in order to claim OpenGL support, a card needs to support at least a certain size texture (64x64 or something like that). That would require significant additions to the code however, and currently I have exams to worry about.

If you are comfortable enough with coding you could try playing around with the code, and I would love knowing what the problem is if you find it.

Good luck.

great! great! great! I love that Mac OS screensaver effect. I've always been looking for this on the PC. Thanks :-) I didn't try to install this yet, but this definitely should make it into standard KDE and Knoppix (bootable CD Linux that you can take with you and present your images everywhere).

This makes not only a great screensaver, but it's also great for photo presentations on a projector. For this purpose, I would like to be able to determine the sequence of the photos by name.

Also, there should be a possibility to include mp3 sound. For example, when 0001.jpg would be displayed, 0001.mp3 should start to play and continue playing until another mp3 with a "matching" name is found. mp3s should be crossfaded.

There should also be a way to "pack" presentations to burn them on CD and give them to people, including sound and picutres.
