Can't switch to previous image in slideshow sometimes

Dreamer · Post by **Dreamer** » Thu Aug 28, 2008 11:35 pm

Sometimes when I switch images quickly in the slideshow using the mouse wheel, I can't switch to previous image. I can switch to next image (4) and next (5), then back to 4, 3, but then I can't switch to previous (3) - can't go before #3.

Edit: Perhaps it's pause, I'm using Pause to stop the slideshow, then, after some time it's impossible to go back. It happened few times in 30 min., but I can't reproduce it.

Anyone? Still not fixed in the beta 2, it's quite annoying, because when I switch images quickly, I found the image I want, but then I can't go back to that image.

To reproduce it just use a mouse wheel (down) to quickly toggle the images, then try to go back (wheel up). Just the same image is 'blinking'. So I can reproduce it only using a mouse wheel, also without Pause key.

Do you have always this problem even with no random?

Strange, I can't reproduce it now. I need more time to test...

OK, I can reproduce it again, try this:

- use settings below
- run the slide show
- scroll down, once, to do to second picture
- wait at least 5 seconds
- quickly scroll down, to switch many pictures
- then quickly scroll up to go back to the second picture
- now try to scroll up once
= the same image (second) is blinking also if you try to scroll up again...

# Slide Show Sequence

OK, another problem, with these settings timer is not working at all now!? Perhaps it's the PlayMode = 2 ? But I am sure I have not changed this.

I'll try to create and test new slide shows tomorrow...

I got it, finally! If the filename/folder is changed/renamed/removed, then switching forward is working good, missing file/folder is skipped and the next image is shown, but when switching backward, it's not working, if the previous image doesn't exist, the same image is shown again and again. I can always reproduce it now.

- create slide show, sld file with 10 pictures (1.jpg - 10.jpg)
- rename 2.jpg to 2a.jpg
- run the slide show
- switch forward
= 2.jpg is skipped, 3.jpg is shown
- switch backward
= just the same image is shown, blinking
