PictureFlow isn´t able to start playback?

[DarkmoonXarX]

Finally I have manged it to put my album art in the correct format, size and whatever (the batch-mode of irfanview is very recommendable for this) so that the presentation with PictureFlow works perfectly. But... if I select an album and select a song it returns to the album selection instead of playing it. Is this the normal behavior? I know that I can´t play songs and run picture flow at the same time but isn´t it possible that the plugin gives the selection to the player and closes then?

I believe PictureFlow is still in the "demo" stage and, as such, doesn't interact with playback at this time. It is, of course, intended to do so eventually.

yeh, thats why it's a 'demo'

Yup.

[DarkmoonXarX]

Pity... it looks so perfect.
Is there hope that someone will add the playback function (soon). Gosh I have to learn programming x)

Thanks for the answers... and a happy new year

Yeah it´s a cool plugin but it needs a 90° screen turn opion. ^^

[DarkmoonXarX]

Yeah that would be great
So there are
- playback support
- 90° turn option
as very... euh... obvious ideas.
What is so difficult about this features?

Does anybody else feel that the scroll wheel control is backwards?

[wayland]

yeh, the wheel seems weird at first. i dont know if the one i have is upto date but the one included in the digibuild from the 25th has odd sorting when listing tracks.

[Jiiprah]

yeah it's up to date. I hope they fix it.

Rockbox is open source. Why not say "I'm working on a patch to fix it" and pitch in?

People have plenty of other things to do. Saying "What is so difficult about this features" is if it's unreasonable for people to be working on other things is silly, when there's so many of you who seem so much more interested in it.

[Jiiprah]

If you hadn't noticed this is a topic discussing the plugin and that is exactly what we are doing.

yeh, I second that when I first got it working it took me like 5 minuets to figure out why it wasn't scrolling

I've made a patch, which fixes the inverted scroll directions in a way. The devs didn't feel like commiting it yet.
