Field notes
The control panel exposes a 1–100% trigger frequency, a 1–15-second duration, and random or selected-screen playback. The gallery names nine built-in game and console screens, including Halo, Resident Evil, PlayStation 2, GameCube, Xbox, and Dreamcast. The page says custom MP4 and WebM clips are stored locally rather than uploaded; it also links to GitHub and a bug-report route.
