hello,

i'm getting the slide show...

but how to navigate the photo's if needed?

the  |<<  and >>| button on the remote will set the music, not the photo
the navigate knobs wil rotate the photo (only upside down) (the slide show will stop at this point)
the |> playbutton wil start the slide-show





and when the foto is 90 degrees lift/rightsided, i can's rotate 90 degrees only upside down.

i have tested this, but it doesnt work. I start music playing and then i will start my slideshow. The music is playing, but when i go to the pictures folder and start with the first picture, the music is stopped.
I have created an playlist for music and in the settings i set backgroundmusic to playlist. When i start the slideshow the music from the playlist is also started. But when i change the folder for another slideshow, the music starts again from the beginning. This is not so useful because i will not hear the same song every time.
Is there another solution (except copy the songs to the picture folders) ? My FW is 3.0.5

Thanks for the tip.

Whilst trying this, I found:


Settings

Ken Burns "on" (or off)

Sideshow -- "on"  set timing to your choice (5sec seems to work best)

Transitions Effect -- Set to your choice

1) Select a folder with music files and select the first song  (or down arrow to where you want to start, fast buttons will change the music to a different track) -- music now playing 

2) Navigate to a folder with pictures and select the first picture (again using just the N,E,W, & S buttons, any pic' can be selected to start)

3) You now have a slideshow (which can be paused via, wait for it - "Pause"   Rotation is also fine).

Now its working:

- background music set to playlist
- playlist is present (under music tab)
- first i select the music folder and start playing
- then i go to the picture folder and start the slideshow (music keeps playing - not from the playlist)
- i can change the picture folder, the music is still playing

- when i start the slideshow first, the the music from playlist is playing

Hello,
I have firm. V4.0.4, and when I start with music (playlist or folder, it does not change anything) and then photo slideshow, there is no way to control the pictures (only rotate and slideshow pause).
Every time that I want to change the picture folder the music is restarting from the first track of the playlist (with playlist ON) or it stops (when music from folder is selected).
Is there any way to control the picture slideshow (previous, next, browse different folder...) when the music is playing with the slideshow??

During the slideshow if you want to go to the next folder background music off. This isvery annoying. Every time I have to turn the music again. I have pictures in the "muzic" apicture "picture". How to solve the problem.
