Screensaver but on Mac

[prograham]

So this isn't actually an AppleTV question but I'm posting here as well.

My ATV3 can read and use my MacPro's aperture library as it's screensaver, seeing all my albums and projects for easy selection of what to use for the screensaver.

Anyone know how I can set my MacbookPro to do this? Both are El Capitan.

Thanks!

I think it should work if you share the library and then use that library in the screensaver.

The ATV could also be using your photo stream as the source, so you can also use that.

iTunes > Home Sharing > Choose Photos to Share with Apple TV...

On aTV
Computers > Photos > select collection > Use as screensaver

sigh... sorry. Just when I think my question is clear I realize it's not.

My ATV3 uses my MacPro just fine as a screensaver.

Now I want my macbookpro to use the aperture library on my MacPro as it's screensaver. Thanks.

Never heard about such possibility.
However, with developments like aTV Aerial screensaver on Mac, technically anything is possible.
