Set up terminal screensavers

Upload backgrounds, choose how long they appear and check the result in the terminal preview. Use PNG, JPG, JPEG, MP4 or GIF.

What to do

Upload the files
Use Upload images to add one or more backgrounds.
Show the background
Check Show Image for each background that should appear.
Choose what appears over it
Show or hide overlays such as information boxes, buttons and logos. A sponsor image may need the full screen.
Set the duration
Set how long each background appears. A video uses its own length, and a single background stays on screen.
Remove an old background
Use the bin icon for a background you want to remove.
Check the design guide
Use the screensaver design guide to choose a format that fits the terminal.
Save the changes
Save before leaving the settings.
Check the terminal preview
Open the saved preview on your computer and check the layout.
