Hi,

I bought the N810 as I am an artist and I wished to be able show images of my work to clients on a portable device. The N810 does this very well apart from the fact that is shuffles all of my images, which I had in number order. How can I get my images to be shown in order on the N810, in full, or very near full screen? I've tried one or two applications but none have given me full screen.

How can I get images to play in order?

Thanks

What apps are you using to try to do this? The default app (Media-- Images) plays my pictures in alphabetical order every time. click on the picture to go to fullscreen mode, then click the picture icon to start the slide show. I was actually wondering if there was a way to get the pictures to play randomly... anybody know about this?

No it's not in alphabetical order, and that's the problem.
I've been using the default app, and it shuffles it. I have a UK N810, maybe this is the cause of the difference?

Thanks for your replies

Try using Canola 2. It has support for picture slideshows and it displays fullscreen without a problem. I don't know about randomization/play in order for it though

You could try Quiver (should have slideshow)
http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/quiver/
or
Mediabox Media Center (image thumbnails)
http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/mediabox/
as image viewers

Hi,

Canola does the same thing. I would now assume it's something to do with either the firmware on my N810, the file properties, or my 8gb card as opposed to it being a problem with any of the programmes.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Unfortunately I don't know why this would be... Try posting in the Canola forum and asking the developers how their media scanner orders the photos. The Canola developers, Handful especially are really helpful and quick to respond.

Hope this helps
