Screensaver issues on Beta 9

[Killerbob]

My screensavers have worked fine in Betas 4-6, but now in Beta 9, they do not.

I have it set to use the Floating screensaver, and the Source is a folder with JPGs. This has worked fine for ages, and now suddenly all I get is a black screen.

Anyone?

Me, too.
Won't play any "running/moving" screensavers that use pictures or jpgs.
Same images used as a non-moving screensaver seems to work.
Strangely enough, I have a couple of third party SS (such as Aerial) that work without problems, AFAIK.
It seems to only affect the built-in screensavers. I did see one that does show changing pictures, but extremely dim, nearly black.

It's the beta 9, I suppose. Report that, if you like. That's what betas are for.

+1 same issue with classic screensaver to show my photos in a folder

The screensaver is still funky (at least for me) in Monterey RC. I select a folder for any of the standard screensavers, and then nothing happens. Album Artwork, Word of the Dat, etc. works, but not the ones where I get to select a folder for the pictures... Sometimes I see a quick popup saying "No Photos", but that is not true. I have selected a folder with 50 JPGs.

Same issue here! Would love to see a fix.

Same here. Something is messed up. Hopefully today's release addresses it.

Today's release did not address it for me. Still black or very dark screensavers when pulling photos.

I have the same issue on my iMAC, works fine on the laptop, was really hoping the RC would fix it but unfortunately, it did not. On the Feedback Assistant is says "more than 10" have the problem so hopefully a fix soon. I had even opted out of the BETA before updating to the RC but whatever was the problem was still there.

Had some success by choosing Ken Burns screensaver and enabling "Show with clock" on my MacBook Pro running 12.0.1 release.

Same problem here with my photo-based screensaver! Get to eventually see my pictures behind a very dark blackish veil. Hopefully an update will fix that!
