CustomSS is a ruby script that enables you to have a self-updating screen saver that does not require any commandline or web-admin direction. All that is required is this script and network access to the pictures folder on your shared media drive.

Currently Supported: (Version 0.2)

  • JPEG (.jpg) pictures

How to Set it up:

  • First, you need to get the script [Avail. Here] and download it to your core.
  • The first time the script is run it sets up a basic structure: 
   - /home/public/data/pictures/customSS/ : This is the directory that you will be adding pictures to.  You can upload them anyway you'd like.  This includes putting pictures in the customSS directory itself or dumping a folder with all of your pictures inside.
   - /var/log/pluto/customSS.log : This file keeps track of what you've already added to the Screen Saver, so that it can determine any new files that it needs to add.
  • <STILL WORK IN PROGRESS>
