Suggestions For The Dream Maker

File Loop Selection

Tuesday, February 27, 2007 by Djevik-KShar | Discussion: Animated Wallpapers

1. Dream Archive
I was just browsing through your nice dream selections; when I noticed something was missing. All of these dreams are 15sec loop clips that have a static time [AKA the sun never sets].

What I propose is a way to cache multiple MPGs, or what-have-you, in the dream format. That way I can have a full day. A sun rise clip, a day clip, a sunset, and a night clip. That way you can have a dream that takes hours to fully loop instead of 15 seconds, and all you would have to do in the Dream Maker would be to set some options to loop certain vids.

Example:
| sunrise - day (loop 50x) - sunset - night (loop 50x) | loop

This may take up alot more hardrive space, but I'd be willing to make the sacrifice for a wicked dream like that!

If it's possible I would love to see a night-time lighting storm that comes in; then leaves [set the night loop so the storm comes in every half hour].


2. Gadget Trigger [I think Alrethe touched on this]
Program Dreamscene to actively collect data from Vista Gadgets. AKA the weather gadget. Have the dream change with the picture of the weather. So if your gadget reads rainy, your dream will rain. All you would need after that; is have a way to change dreams smoothly [automatic fader].


As always, I will greedily await more dreams.
Thanks!
