Roxio MediaTicker 2.1

Photo slideshow on your desktop

roxio-mediaticker

Roxio MediaTicker creates a ticker tape of images from a folder along the edge of the desktop.

Pictures can either be displayed as a scrolling bar or a static display where the images fade as they change. We find that the latter is far more appealling. You can also adjust the frequency at which the images change.

Clicking on an image displays a larger view from which the image can be printed, edited or emailed.

Within your folders image files can be played in the sequentail order or as a random shuffle. Sub folders are also added to the list so the entire My Pictures folder can be used.

Desktop icons and windows are resized automatically when changing the size of the toolbar so they will not be lost beneath the ticker.

Roxio Media Ticker 2.1 contains a number of new features, such as the facility to search for digital media from your desktop and Windows Vista compatibility.
