Hi! I'm trying to find the Screensaver.zip with files to have the rotation for album art. All links seem to be dead.
I don't seem to have the xml file for screensaver anywhere in my Musicbee installation.
Thanks for the help!

Download the latest MusicBee v3.6 patch from here.
Unzip into your MusicBee directory and overwrite existing files.

Thanks for the quick response.
The links the new theater plugin don't seem to work (on Chrome of Firefox).
I installed version 3.6. still don't have the wanted files.
This is what I'd like to do:
Image rotation in screensaver. (Image 1, Image 2)
I'd like to have those files as mentionned by Steven:

"ScreenSaver.Rotation" sub-folder is available for you to place any background images. You can also assign a specific settings file to that image by naming the settings file the same as the picture with a .xml extension. If its not there then the default settings file is used
eg.
Plugins\ScreenSaver.Background.jpg
Plugins\ScreenSaver.Settings.xml
Plugins\ScreenSaver.Rotation\Relax.jpg
Plugins\ScreenSaver.Rotation\Relax.xml
Plugins\ScreenSaver.Rotation\Background 2.jpg
Plugins\ScreenSaver.Rotation\Rainbow.jpg
then the Relax screen saver will use the override settings file Relax.xml ..."


Thanks again for the help, this would be my final tweak for my ultimate Musicbee experience.

The exact files referenced in green above like Rainbow.jpg or Relax.jpg?
No, you cannot find those anywhere in MusicBee anymore. Why not just google and download related images?

Or are you asking how to get MB's theater mode to rotate your custom images on your PC?
If so, then search for rotationFolder on this guide: https://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=39780.0

Thank you,

My custom screensaver is the album art in center full screen with nothing else.
I want to have the image rotation when an album has more than one image embedded.

I should be able to find the correct synthax with that link.
You pointed me in the right direction.

Thanks again !

Nah, that's not possible through theater modes - this is something you can only set through MusicBee's track information panel.
From the TM plugin, you will only have access to the primary album cover (you can't get any album cover rotation going on there - especially embedded artwork).
The rotation function you mentioned earlier on is to do with local pictures on your PC saved to that particular folder.

Gotcha,
I'll stay with the one album art cover as screensaver and stop searching.
Thanks for the info !
