Hi,
I am trying to figure out how I can best set up a workflow so I can easily/automatically generate a collection of jpgs of my best pictures for use in a screensaver. The use as screensavers means that I must be able to edit these images so as to make them conform to the 16:9 ratio and I do not want to touch the originals in LR. Virtual copies are the obvious answer, but how do I set up a new (smart?) collection (let's call it "screensaver") with only virtual copies of pictures in another collection ("favourites") when the "favourites" collection is constantly being added to. Obviously after initially editing all virtual copies in "screensaver" I would only want to edit new additions afterwards and not have to replace the whole set time and again.
