screensavers.

[TEAK36]

I have a short video file that I would like to turn into a screensaver.Is this possible to,and if so,how do I do this?

Yes it's possible, but you'll have to buy a bit of software to help.  There is one called Professional Screensaver Producer from Axialis.com.  That's not to pricey (�20) and should do the job and more!

Otherwise try searching for screensaver creator on:

 http://downloads-zdnet.com.com/

They will have trial software to use as well as the occasional freebie!

If you are on Windows XP you can download an XP powertool for free. There are loads of different free powertools - just google XP Powertools.

 

This one is called the 'Windows XP Creativity Fun Pack PowerToys Video Screensaver'

i suspect because diy (backwards) is perceived to be a racist term, although not sure why AB thinks it is in this context
