Rainking720 31 Posted May 4, 2017 Author Share Posted May 4, 2017 Is it like the WMC photo screensaver? I mean conceptually same idea, it doesn't zoom out and show a bunch of pictures at once, but i wrote it with the intent of simulating the same basic functionality ... it's actually more like sageTV's photo screen saver if you've ever seen that.

TheShanMan 34 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 How do I install this? I don't see any way to install from URL on the plugins page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AutomatedElec 1 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Has anyone found a way to install this plugin on the newer versions of Emby Theater? The option to install from a URL seems to have disappeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red5ive 30 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Just bumping this. Is there a way to still use this plugin under the current version of Emby Theatre? Luke: can you confirm is there is a way or has support for it been dropped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostByte 5024 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 It may return in the future. Thanks. This is the one thing the the old Samsung community app had that I miss was an option to choose photos as your screensaver instead of something like the Emby logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serpi 72 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 A photo screensaver option is being added to Theater. OK, but where does it get the pictures from, there's no option for it? Is this something in the upcoming server? Thanks & Ciao, Alfred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36887 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 From your photo libraries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrbee99 1544 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Would be handy to have a choice. Fr'instance, I've put pretty much all our photos into Emby, including quite pleasant views of the local area, and ones I record of serial numbers and receipts of electronics and stuff I buy. I know which would make a better screensaver... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red5ive 30 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Great to see the photo screen saver has been added but it is really basic. Would like to see some options added in the near future, here's my list (in order of importance): 1.Be able to choose whether to have an image caption and to choose what. At the moment we have the file name displayed on screen with no option to disable it. That would be fine but all my photos have a file name like DCR_251006, not very informative or appealing. Would be better to read the photo exif data and give us the option of date or location. 2.Being able to choose a library or being able to exclude certain folders. like arrbee99 above I have some folders with random stuff that would not be great on my TV screen! 3.Some better transitions or 'Ken burns' effects. The static image with quick fade is very dull. The old Windows Media Center screensaver was the best at this but even a simple pan and scan would be an improvement. Hope to see all of these in the near future ;-) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5024 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Maybe an option to display only photo folders marked as 'Favorites'. If you can do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
