Shimmer

Post by captainfearless »

I wonder if anyone else has experienced this?

Always when i run a slideshow there is a slight shimmer/wobble to the images, like heat haze. Windows slideshows are solid. Is this an internal quirk or is is just me? Anyone know of a fix? Windows 10.

Hello,
images are loaded, resized to screen size then displayed. gPhotoShow Free doesn't even use DirectX, just plain old GDI. Images should be solid as any other program. The only thing you could notice is a slight blur if images are huge (for example photos from a big megapixel digital camera)
gPhotoShow Pro can add a light sharpen after resize to improve image display

There is no blur, image quality is pin sharp, yet the wobbling persists with every slideshow.

Interestingly with the screensaver the images are rock solid.

Have tried enabling extended logging but the the slideshow crashes, any suggestions?

Which program and version are you using exacly? And which is the screen saver ?
You could take a short video of the wobbling.

about sending video, you can upload it to dropbox, google drive or something like that and send a pm with link.
You can also contact me using the contacts forms and I will send you my email address so you can use wetransfer or something like that
