My Pictures also includes videos. (1 Viewer)

[juro]

Hi Gemx,

so far it works fine and I did not find any other than the known issues. Would be great if the bug "- when you just click on a video (without slideshow) it won't show up" will be fixed soon.

One question. Am I right that the functionality of the plug in is also available using the original Picture plug in?

Thanks!

No, it is not possible to view videos in pictures at the moment with the original.

But it would be perfect if it could, for watching a folder from the last vacation that has both pictures but also some small videos from the trip. Without having to change back/forth from pictures/video and then also loose both time and the timeline of the trip.

Right now this plugin is much better than the original, even with the current bugs. So keep up the good work!

Thanks for this, it will make holiday experiences a lot better.

So, does it work for you, do you encounter any bugs other than the one i already listed?

Two things I would like to point out if you have time:

1. Will it be possible to make Recursive Slideshow also work? Currently nothing happens when I select it.

2. When selecting normal slideshow, it does not process all items.
The following caught my eye:

One more thing I might mention, I cannot watch pictures when listening to music/radio now. When I press a picture I just get a black screen (with the music keep playing). Not sure if music worked with pictures before though... Not the end of the world though, the music would have to stop anyway when it start playing a movie..

+1 on the music.
I did not test that part, but mostly I also use the slideshow with background music.

CORRECTION - Just uploaded a new version (V2)

The only left bug is that a video won't play if you just click on it.
During a slideshow or if you click on a picture and press <cursor right> until you reach the video it also plays.
So stay tuned, i am working on it

Cool!

I almost forgot about that feature but it's really nice if you archive your movies along with your photos based on events or date.

Hi Gemx,

when will you deploy the next version of the plugin?
