Does this work on XP? I just took a look at Deskscapes and can't see the option.

Sorry this option is only Vista / 7.

Thought that would be the case. 1 more reason to upgrade I guess.

Thanks for the help.

Call me overkill, but I run 5 monitors!  Putting 5 seperate static or motion images on each is nifty, however,  I use a program called UltraMon to manage my collective monitors and get Hi-Res single image wallpapers from 9X Media.  UltraMon is able to use my 9X Media wallpapers as one continuous, not strecthed, image left to right spanned over all 5 monitors, which is AWSOME looking.  So my questions to the pros out here are:

Can Deskscapes do this? Can it do this with animated wallpapers?  Does anyone even create 3 to 5 monitor wide single imaged, animated wallpaers to use with DeskScapes?  I REALLY, REALLY hope so!

Any info would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

I tried running deskscapes 3, but it doesn't even support more then 3 for seperate monitors...  I have 5 monitors as well.

Hy,

Beautiful wallpaprers dualmonitor you can find here http://owall.net/.

ARRGGG Island. Went and looked at it, thought it was some nice stuff. So decided to give the trial a whirl. currently have the globe spinning and I like it enough to buy...except

No MPEG-2 on Vista Home Basic >.< And while there are 3rd party workarounds. I have a serious issue with 3rd party software. If I could get the Codec's from a microsoft site I would be all over it and you would have made a sale lol.

But I don't trrust 3rd party sites enough with either my CC number or access to my hard drive. Sorry

Doesn't work on 3 monitor setup on Win 7 x64.

How are you getting past the 2560x1600 limitation of Fraps and what are you using to encode to MPEG or WMV that will allow a higher output than 1920x1080?

Your video shows a 3 monitor setup with a dream running but that can be done with a Triple Head to Go.

I'm running a dual monitor Eyefinity setup and am unable to produce 3840x1080 dreams although I can create dreams to stretch properly.

I don't know how triple head to go works but this is an eyefinity setup trying to make a video at normal resolutions will make it stretch and distort.  I'm sure the same works on triple head to go if it does the same thing eyefinity does in terms of making 3 monitors act as one (not extended or duplicated)  This is ONE really long dream.

 

I don't know what version of Frapps I have but it allows me to record at 4800x900.  if you want you can do the half pixel sizing too to 2400x450.

 

Lastly the program I used to encode the video and force it to maintain the same aspect ratio was Xilisoft Video Converter Ultimate 6.  took me a while to figure out how to make it keep the same aspect ratio.

You can get away with stretching an HD dream to a dual screen but not on a triple. I first had a dual then added the third screen to finish the eyefinity set-up and it didn't work out, video was fuzzy. Also there's an extreme amount of clipping where it clips off the top and bottom to crop to 3 monitors. Basically you lose a lot of the actual video stretching it. See this other video where I was in the process of figuring out how to create long aspect ratio dreams. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_F1YuIGZShw

Here's the problem I'm getting with Vista+DeskScapes+Dual Monitors...

Initially, I choose the same desktop for both monitors, in this case, Desktop Earth.

It only pops up on monitor one, and it's animated.

I right click on my desktop, click personalize, and click desktop background.

Just bringing up the desktop background menu gets the 2nd monitor to show Desktop Earth. However, now neither monitor is animated.

What do I do now?
