I NEED my HST installation to act as a photo frame in order to get WAF above 0.
But I also need to be able to launch HST screens with certain information at other times and then "fall back" into photo frame move when there is no activity.
Due to the lack of any photo frame functionallity in HST I have tried to initiate the Windows screensaver(with pictureview) on my HST client after a minute and then simulate mouse movement etc. to get windows out if the screensaver mode - but I cannot do with more than 60% sucess and it seems slow.
What I really would like was to be able to run a scritp called "change picture" and then have a virtual device to be updated with a randomly selected URL/FILE in my picture folders on my server. I would then run this script at inactivity periods every 5 second and show a "photo" screen on top of my HST screen.
Has anybody done something like this or can anybody help?
