rodflash Video Screensaver

rodflash Video Screensaver is a small Windows freebie that can use any of the videos stored on your local drives as a screensaver.

Once installed, the app can be accessed via the standard Windows “Screensaver” menu, so the app can’t be launched as a stand-alone program.

Instead, you need to select rodflash Video Screensaver in the screensaver drop-down menu, while the “Settings” button provides one-click access to all of its configurable parameters.

Everything’s pretty intuitive, and aside from the fact that the configuration screen can’t be resized or moved around on the desktop, you get a very user-friendly interface.

Users are only required to choose the video file they wish to enable as screensaver and the app offers support for the most popular video formats on the market. For example, it can handle AVI, MPG, MOV, MP4, M4V, 3GP, WMV and RMVB extensions, without any limitation on size or duration.

You can configure rodflash Video Screensaver to run the video in full-screen mode, enable audio and set up mouse options.

rodflash Video Screensaver works smoothly on all Windows versions and it doesn’t affect the overall system stability, but the videos you select may very well do. If you choose a HD clip for example, your computer may be slowed down a little bit when running in screensaver mode.

To sum up, rodflash Video Screensaver is a handy piece of software that truly serves its purpose with minimum effort. It doesn’t require more than basic computer knowledge and comes with a freeware license.
