VLC media player includes an option to invert video colors.
Apparently that will negate having to toggle color inversion
whenever playing a video. But looks like VLC fails as an image
viewer.

So I need a picture/image viewer that will show pictures inverted. I
have found some that allow inverting colors in the editing process,
but I'm talking about viewing successive images inverted without
having to repeatedly change settings. Like VLC media player, but for
pictures instead of videos.

Thanks.


According to this, Irfanview has a command line option to invert a
picture. Perhaps you could use that somehow ?

irfanview /invert ...

But that's not likely to make the decorations on the Irfanview window
do the right thing.

I do not understand what you are doing.


What, specifically, don't you understand?

Are you running movies with the colors inverted,


Yes, VLC media player makes it easy. After you change a setting, every
video you run is inverted.

or are you taking individual pictures


No, I'm talking about viewing pictures.

inverting the color and using them as screen savers.


Screen savers?

With a toolbar function, Irfanview will invert the all colors on any
picture that it is showing.
