The videos in question look normal in all media players. Only in Deskscapes is this an issue. Based on the lack of this functionality my only recourse seems to be to make a copy and edit it for deskscapes use only,

[quote who="basj" reply="1" id="3951189"] Hello, Sorry to hear you are having issues. Have you tried the Effect Feature in Deskscape? ...[/quote] yes I have and could not locate a saturation-increase effect, even after trying a few combinations of the ones available. If you can point out the one that achieves this I would be grateful. -thx

Looking for ability to decrease or increase color saturation. On other image tools it is typically a slider that will either decrease color to nothing (grayscale) or increase to maximum color. Deskscapes tends to decrease colors significantly on many of my videos. -thank you.

Thank you Basj for your reply. Please forward this feature request to the powers-that-be. The app already has a 'pause' function, so a 'play previous' or 'play next' feature should be a no-brainer to implement.

Does deskscapes have a skip to/play 'next' or skip to/play 'previous' function? -thx

The steps I did : (CPU activity above normal) 1 - Delete each play list. 2 - Create new playlist and add 1 folder and select 'add folder contents and update for changes automatically' to the new playlist. Steps 1 and 2 repeated for each playlist. (CPU activity now normal) These steps I did in the beginning. CPU issue develop AFTER much time pass. I will monitor and report back if issue reappear -thank you

This app was originally set to EVR (default?). I tried the other two and both were glitchy. HOWEVER, I decided to re-add my previous playlists and the cpu is back to normal (for the moment).

Explorer.exe High Power Usage in DeskScapes Stardock Forums

The task called explorer.exe is running higher than normal. I have identified the cause to be Deskscapes. After terminating Deskscapes tasks the explorer.exe task goes down to normal readings. After extensive troubleshooting I have confirmed the cause. I deleted all the playlists I created (4 in my case) and this results with explorer.exe task running normally. The combined size of the files in the playlists total +4GB. All the files are mp4, graphic-intensive, hi-res (1920x

Update : I applied one more troubleshooting step (purge/reinstall suggestion currently on hold) and have confirmed the cause. I deleted all the playlists I created and this results with explorer.exe task running normally. The combined size of the files in the playlists total +4GB. All the files are mp4, graphic-intensive, hi-res (1920x1080 min.) and some are as long as 15 minutes in length. Please let me know if this is a Deskscapes limitation and that I have overtasked the app

Reply to Uninstall Issue in DeskScapes Stardock Forums

Thank you for the reply. I will proceed with the instructions provided. However, I have a 'related' concern. As I was troubleshooting this issue I did several shutdowns and restarts and noticed that Deskscapes would activate at every boot. I searched and confirmed I do not have this app set to start automatically at boot and could not find anything in the app itself to start with Windows(10). How can I avoid this?
