2.95 - Slideshow of photos during track playback
« on: September 05, 2006, 02:00:33 AM »
Hi!

I just tested the nev 2.95 relase and I can not find the feature:
"Added slideshow of photos during track playback (photofusion)"

What is this and where can be useful?

Thanx, Bosti

1) Load a track with a photos attached using PhotoFusion
2) Profile the track
3) Start Playback

As each photo is encountered on the track it will be displayed using whatever viewing software you have set for jpg (in windows).  I use ACDSee.

With two monitors this is especially cool.

In future versions we plan to have photos displayed on the map and have then become larger or less transparent as the playback proceeds.

Hi!

Nothing happens when I try this. I use IrfanView and when I use pan and move mouse on to picture I can view photo with right click.

This and especialy future feature sounds realy good.

Thanx for help!

You are using playback in the profile window, right?  Not multi-track playback?

Make sure your profiling the correct track -- one that has photos attached to it.

Are there multiple tracks in your file, by chance?

Hi!

Yes I'm using playback in the profile window and I have just one track opened with photos.

There are a few segments in the track, because of lost of GPS signal, but does it matter?

Thanx!

Multiple tracks may be a problem.. I'm not sure.  Obviously it should work regardless, but it may not be well tested.

Try merging them all into one track.  I'll have a look at the code.
