News Screensaver

Postby martlist on Tue Mar 04, 2008 6:00 am

I have been using this screensaver on my touchscreen for a few weeks and really like it. Not free ($15) but I have not found anything as good.

You can put pictures behind it but I instead used the same background I have in ehome and it looks like it is part of the system. It also takes any RSS/html/text feeds and so I have it showing my favourite news stories.

I have no connection to this company and so don't know how well this is supported but this definitely got my wife's approval. Something the touch screen didn't get when I first installed it ;-)

My last couple of posts have been about how I have extended my setup and I wondered if folks might find a new forum around user installs interesting.

Each thread would be started by somebody posting their current config and updating it as they enhance. I would love to know what things folks have done with eHome, screenshots, external programs, plug-ins.

The software is so flexible I bet some folks have done some pretty interesting things.

I know from the posts that Tony has ;-)
