  1. Different desktop background slideshow for each monitor?


    I'm looking for a way to have a different desktop background slideshow for each monitor. Each of my monitors has a different aspect ratio (one is 4x3, one is 16x9) and I want each picture to fit nicely. I have two folders of photos with the right aspect ratio for each monitor, I want each monitor to only use its specified folder for the desktop background. Does anyone know any way to do this?

  4. Different desktop background slideshow for each monitor?

    Two slideshows on different monitors

    Hi,

    Changing background settings can be done thru Settings app and Control Panel. Currently, setting two different slideshows on different monitors is not possible. We can only set different background pictures on two different monitors.

    Let us know if you need anything else. We're here to help.
