So I am attempting to set a screen saver that has a static image that is unique to each of my monitors. The issue is if I try and use windows live, or default photo, the same settings carry to each monitor the is set to an instance of that screen saver. So I can't use unique settings for each monitor.

Now I tried to use display fusions photo screen saver because I COULD use all 3 together and have one picture on each, but for some reason display fusion does not display the image at all and I just get a black screen.

Any ideas to accomplish this?

You can do this with the DisplayFusion Photo Screen Saver as well, just make sure to select each monitor individually, and click the Settings button next to the screen saver list to pick the folder for each screen.

Please let me know if you still run into any trouble.

Thanks!

Yeah that is the issue, when using display fusions, the pictures do not display, i just get in the preview the default icon, and when i test it, each monitor is just black.

Could you back up the DisplayFusion Settings (Settings > Options tab) and attach the file to this topic so that I can check out the settings for the screen savers?

Thanks!

Thanks! It looks like everything is configured correctly. What type of image files are in the "Pictures\Desktop Backgrounds\ScreenSaver\1" folder? (i.e. are they JPG, PNG, BMP, etc?)

a Single .JPG, I noticed that forcing the preview and testing it did not work, but when it came on naturally, the single picture showed (although it was not scaled properly)

Interesting! Could you check the settings for the screen saver to make sure the drop-down is set to something like "Fit Best (Clip Edges)"?
