Question for anyone with a tryx panorama
Posted by Senior-Music5245@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 4 comments
I have a valkyrie N360 and I've been pretty disappointed with their software.
-
The screen will always boot up with their default video requiring me to enter the software to change it back
-
I can't delete their default videos as a workaround.
-
they have 3 modes; single loop, List loop & random mode. The latter 2 are functionally they same so I can't even exclude the default videos that way
-
sleeping the PC does retain my settings but the screen will stay on the entire time.
Safe to say, I'm pretty disappointed by the software here as I consider all that basic functions.
Do you Tryx owners run into any of these issues here? Im looking for alternatives

Tryx Panorama owner here, going through your points one by one:
Boot-up persistence: solid on Tryx. Kanali remembers your selected wallpaper across reboots and PC restarts, no need to reopen the app each time. This one's clearly better than what you're describing.
Default content: you can exclude the bundled Kanali wallpapers from your active playlist. I haven't tried fully deleting them from disk, but excluding them from rotation works fine.
Playback modes: Kanali has single, sequential, and random. In my setup they behave differently (sequential plays your active list in order, random shuffles). Worth confirming on Day 1 if that's critical to you.
Sleep mode: in my setup the Tryx screen turns off when the PC sleeps. Can verify in more detail if that's a deal-breaker before you commit.
Two other things worth knowing before switching:
* The Tryx Panorama is AMOLED and ultrawide curved (2240x1080), so animations look noticeably better than on flat LCD pumps. Real visual upgrade.
* Full disclosure: I run pimpmycooler.com, a free animated wallpaper library for the Tryx (no signup, no email). Kanali's bundled content is decent but limited, third-party options fill the gap if you want more variety.
Both softwares have rough edges, but boot persistence and the AMOLED panel are real wins over what you're describing.

I was looking for a place to find a good resource to scale my images THANK YOU!! I would just go on gify or on google and just download any I saw and they looked so grainy and horrible I hated it ! :(( any other recommendations though for a wide look instead of the black boarders? I like this but I also want to fill my screen too! :) Will be using this tool though also!

Wait damn… there’s a limit to only 1 😭

The valkyrie n360 is also a panorama screen AMOLED (2400x1080) but that slight extra wideness isn't worth these software issues.
I had considered boot persistence & sleep to be basic function for any display before I had bought a panorama screen. Boy was I wrong there.
Thanks for the info. It's good to have this information before I go back to talk to the system integrator
