rwood / wallpaperchange Goto Github PK

I don't know what's causing it, but there's actually a window for the application that can be opened and can't be minimized. Is there a way to make it have no window?

I've downloaded the binaries (from the link in the readme) and extracted them as usual. Upon running WallpaperChange.application, this window appears:

Application crashes immediately on start up on my system now, after making no changes other than updating Windows. (Windows 7 x64)

During the transition between time periods, the two frames will be blended as per the transition_slices directive, but after completing that many slices, the final frame is a mix between the second frame, and a mostly-transparent first frame.

It is very apparent with the 07-Night and 08-Late-Night frames in testing.

Here's an example, highlighting the moon between frames 07 and 08:

The download link doesn't seem to be working. Would it possible to fix that?
Many thanks :)

Hi,

There is a bug in Windows (I'm using 7) relating to having a solid colour as a background, it causes logon to be slow (up to 30 secs). There is a hotfix: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/977346 however it doesn't seem to want to install for me and suggested workarounds don't help.

The problem is that after a couple of reboots, the WallpaperChange program appears to remove the existing wallpaper leaving the solid colour background. Since the program only starts up and sets the wallpaper after logon, the placeholder background causes the slow logon issue. If the program could always leave the last wallpaper background image alone before replacing it with the appropriate image according to the config, I think that would solve the problem.

Cheers.

Windows 8 x64

Everytime it comes to the time to change the wallpaper, it crashes after setting it.

0.8

When I check the 'Start Automatically' and restart my computer, the program crashes every time it boots up.
Other than that it works perfectly fine and doesn't crash when I leave my pc on for days at a time.

I'm running Windows 7 x86 if that makes any difference.

App was working great on Win10 then suddenly began throwing OOM errors. System has 16 GB so memory isn't the issue and other apps have no issues.
