Hi All,

I'd like to know what people use to display there images as a screensaver?

I've got a lot of pics of cars and things, and the current one I use doesn't pickup all the directories.

As a example for the latest CL63, it's filed under the following directory structure:
\Wallpapers\Manufacturers\Mercedes-Benz\AMG\CL Klasse\W216\CL63 AMG

However, my current screensaver cuts off at 'CL Klasse' and as there is no images in that folder, it doesn't display anything.

Size wise, i've got a lot. I say a lot for me. 143,000 images, 5,720 directories, 50ish GB

Badly written code ( free screensaver image viewers ) usually barfs at the leng of file names and the inclusion of spaces. First try removing the space. After that try flattening the files for the wallpaper.

It's also quite possible that the screensaver will barf at having such a long list if you have pointed it at all 5720 directories :(

Howevr, never foudn an issue with the free album viewer screensaver included in WIndows 7

I think Display Fusion (http://www.displayfusion.com/) might do what you want.. it will also allow you to rotate through pictures for your desktop background.
