Editor's review of Harry Potter Screen Saver

4.0 stars
""

This screensaver places a variety of scenes from Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone on your computer. This program is unlikely to wear out its welcome quickly, as it offers more than 40 images taken from the film. However, image quality is somewhat erratic; some shots look fine, but others appear fuzzy, pixilated, and overly dark. The audio quality of the accompanying music is dreadful and sounds like an MP3 encoded at a very low bit rate. The feature set fares somewhat better. You can disable the audio, choose from a number of transition effects, render all images in black-and-white, set the image delay, and display captions. Best of all, Harry Potter Screen Saver contains no adware and won't cost you a dime. Its middling image quality aside, this screensaver makes an ideal download for fans of the pint-sized wizard.

"not worth it"

by colburn_cl on July 12, 2005

Cons: it's a 2-day demo, costs $12-something to "register", all for something you could do yourself for free with the regular Windows slideshow screensaver

"probably good enough for kids..."

Summary: ...but the images are quite dark at times and really not that imaginative (one or two are clearly low-quality screenshots). I don't know what trouble the person below had with uninstalling, but there is an "Uninstall Harry Potter" button on the star... read more >>
