Screensaver does not work

Screen saver does not work. I have an iMac running Ventura 13.2.1

Selecting Classic or Ken Burns screensaver results in a monochrome screen that cycles through different colors. It used to work with previous MacOS's.

Ken Burns & Classic ScreenSavers no longer working? I have a brand new, MacBook Air (2022, M2). When I go to System Preferences, Display, Screensaver, & click on Ken Burns, then on the right hand side, the only "Source" option is "Colors" or my own photos. So are just beautiful, nature photos no longer a Screensaver option at all?

Ventura Screen Saver I've recently upgraded to the Ventura OS on my iMac (2021), and now my screen saver is acting funny. All I get, from most of the choices, are coloured blocks instead of pictures. How can this be rectified?

When you select the Classic or Ken Burns screen saver, you need to click on the "Options…" button and choose a source other than "Colors".
