When I try to change wallpaper folder in the desktop parameters
Menu 'parameters' > 'Desktop', I change folder by a folder named 'Wallpapers' into folder 'Images' in my home ... but can not saving my choice !

All files are into jpeg format, or png.

When i reopen the desktop settings, it's defaults images into, and not my choice

Can you launch,
xfdesktop-settings
in console, and display any messages?

Then result of xfconf-query -c xfce4-desktop -l
 
Code: 
% xfdesktop-settings

(xfdesktop-settings:1056): GVFS-RemoteVolumeMonitor-WARNING **: remote volume monitor with dbus name org.gtk.vfs.HalVolumeMonitor is not supported
fstab: /etc/fstab:6: Inappropriate file type or format

I have just tested, and backdrop cycle is working. At first I thought that it's monitoring problem.

Try to reset your changes:

Code: 
xfconf-query -c xfce4-desktop -p / -rR

Then re-launch xfdesktop-settings, without enabled random number.

I know, there are changes in upstream repository, which fix backdrop settings. But it's not easy to track down, because new hidden option was introduced (for animation files).
