<< < (9/10) > >>

Ahhh I'am going to crazy.I copy/paste and renamed all pictures for each hour, just like the screenshot above.Everything ok but in the hour 24 (00:00) wallpaper does not change.

Here is the code.

*/*/* - */*/* | 01-01 | 01.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 02-02 | 02.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 03-03 | 03.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 04-04 | 04.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 05-05 | 05.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 06-06 | 06.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 07-07 | 07.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 08-08 | 08.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 09-09 | 09.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 10-10 | 10.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 11-11 | 11.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 12-12 | 12.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 13-13 | 13.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 14-14 | 14.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 15-15 | 15.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 16-16 | 16.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 17-17 | 17.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 18-18 | 18.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 19-19 | 19.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 20-20 | 20.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 21-21 | 21.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 22-22 | 22.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 23-23 | 23.jpg
*/*/* - */*/* | 24-24 | 24.jpg

mouser:
thank you for sticking with it and not giving up.
i can try to go check the source code because your file looks fine.
you might try using
*/*/* - */*/* | 0-0 | 24.jpg
instead of
*/*/* - */*/* | 24-24 | 24.jpg

and see if that makes a difference?

I made some experiments.Is the program refuses pictures are bigger than 600kb or 1024x768 screen solution  ?.Some pictures are changing correctly but someone doesn't change.When wallpaper changes not correctly i set tmpbmap.bmp file as a wallpaper from right-click menu but does not change.

I changed the converter.exe to new one.But result is same.

And i wonder 01-02 means 01:00 to 02:59 or 01:00 to 01:59  ??


Update !!! I think I figured out what's going on.Wallpapers which are changing not correctly have a 300 DPI.The others have 72 DPI.I corrected them but unfortunately problem continues.

SphinxCn:
Sorry to bump this old thread, but i was unsure if i should start a new thread on this or not.. anyways, the example says

// if multiple files are specified separated by ; then one will be chosen randomly

but how exactly? i've tried every combination i could think of, and i still get an "image not found" error, is that feature unfinished or is there some special syntax i'm missing?

mouser:
Hi Sphinx,

Boy it's been a long time since anyone asked about this tool.

Just had a glance at the old code and i can't see anything in there that makes me believe that it actually does implement this feature of choosing one randomly if you separate with ;  it sounds to be like it was a feature i never got around to adding..

Is this something you really have a use for? It wouldn't be hard to add, but I'm wondering if we might ask dc member Skwire to recode it using his awesome skills, and make it a little easier to use.  Since he writes this stuff in his sleep.
