Screen Savers
« Reply #15 on: February 17, 2005, 10:57:00 AM »

Just an update if anyone is interested.  I converted the 1280x768 Aquarium Art Pack video to a 720x480 XMV, and it plays great in UnleashX as a screensaver or in a skinned background.

I can't send anyone the file for legality reasons, plus it's about 20MB, but if anyone wants to pick up the pack and do the same conversion, you'll need a few tools:

* VSO DivX-to-DVD (converts the nonstandard 1280x768x60fps .MPG to 720x480x30fps)
* TMPGEnc Xpress (convert file to .AVI which WM8 Encoder needs to process)
* Windows Media Encoder 8

I'd love to do the "Classics" artwork pack from Roku, but this one was already too hard on the wallet.

biggrin.gif I think an aquarium Screen Saver would rock but I prefer 3d aquarium with the goldfish to the aquariam that is included in the m$ Plus! pack  cool.gif that one would be much cooler.  Good luck!
