ebr 14913 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I just put up a new beta of the MBPhoto plug-in. It eliminates the need for any configuration in the plug-in itself. Instead, you must define your photo collection as having a collection type of "Photos" and then it will find the locations automatically. This will mean some of you who don't have your collection type set properly will stop having them recognized as photos and you may need to remove and re-add the collection so you can give it the proper type. I apologize for this inconvenience but this will make for a much easier experience going forward. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBers 6771 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Hi Eric. Can you remind me how to play a folder of photos please, as pressing the play button on WMC remote doesn't seem to work. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14913 Posted October 18, 2013 Author Share Posted October 18, 2013 Where, in the interface are you pressing "Play"? Doing that on a folder, should produce a menu to select from just like doing it on any other folder. Also, if you go into a folder and press play on any one of the photos, it will start playing them from that one and continuing on through the folder.

CBers 6771 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I have a folder "in focus" but when I press play on the remote nothing happens. I'll have another play tomorrow, as all HTPCs are off now. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redshirt 1487 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Not that it helps others solve their issues, but I'm having no issues at all browsing my photos or using the play button to start a slideshow. Using the new MBPhoto server plugin and the MBC plugin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14913 Posted October 19, 2013 Author Share Posted October 19, 2013 Yes it is. It seems to be showing a folder of photos as one photo What would you guess I might need in order to help you figure out what's going on?

heula 189 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 MBClassic keeps crashing while generating all the images. Probably will stop when all images are generated but while doing that it's annoying. No problems with playing a slideshow here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heula 189 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Crashing how? Error? What theme? It's the not responding error you will return to Media Center now. I think this is caused by high cpu caused by ehexthost.exe when loading / generating all my photos. ROC theme (it's all in my signature) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heula 189 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 (edited) High CPU won't cause a crash. Can you reproduce in the default theme? Error from the event log? In default theme this does not happen. It happens in ROC Theme while images are generating and scrolling at the same time. Only difference I can see is that ROC uses the image also as backdrop and default theme doesn't. I also see that default theme keeps the aspect ratio of the generate photo thumbs.
