When viewing pictures, is there some quick way to rotate the image? I can use the mouse and right-click, but I want to be able to use the remote control.

frodes: sorry, I'm not familiar w/ that remote, but it seems like you have an .ini file where you can define your keypresses so it seems capable of the function. MCS "info" button is equivalent to a "show context menu" (which is keyboard F9 in MP - see the complete list of keyboard mapping here http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/KeyboardShortcuts).

Thank you very mouch!

This probably is all I need. I tried 10 min earlier today, the little red button rotates, but being able to bring up the info screen is usefull too.

I will find some button to program F9, guess that will do the trick.

EDIT :

I still have two questions about pictures. Don't really know if this is the right place to post it, but here goes :

When I zoom in, it seems it does not zoom completely out, so when I zoom out all the way, key right, left, up, down moves the picture, it does not go to next image. Understand what I mean?

and.. Sometimes, when i browse the pictures, pressing right for next image, it seems to register two keystrokes. It shows me the next image for just a very short time, and goes to the next one. I then have to go one back to watch it.
Why is this, and what can I do to it?

    Setting orientation

    When pictures come from new cameras, MP rotates them automatically.
    The reason MP did not do it in your case is probably because the EXIF orientation is not set correctly in this picture.

    Assuming your pictures are jpg's, do the following to set the orintation:
    Download EXIV2 from http://www.exiv2.org/download.html and extract the file EXIV2.exe.
    Now if for example your picture name is "c:\pictures\mypic.jpg", you can rotate the picture to position 6 (upper-right) as follows:

    EXIV2 "c:\pictures\mypic.jpg" -M"set Exif.Image.Orientation 6"

    The possible orientations are:
    1 Upper Left
    3 Lower Right
    6 Upper Right
    8 Lower Left

    Note that you may need to rename or copy the picture since for some reason MP sometimes remembers the old orientation.

    Are different people taking turns watching the same thing on the same HTPC? For me, separating users in MP2 is a drawback, as is the interface. Simply put, this can't be done in MP1, or rather, it can't be done quickly, because everything would have to be rewritten. But if each user logs in with their own Windows account, MP1 can...
