Slideshow formats supported

Post by ptaylor » Sun May 01, 2011 6:05 pm

I'm using Twonky Server as part of the Western Digital MyBookLive product and under the Photo media browser it has a section for slideshows. How can I add a new slideshow to this list as it currently only has the dynamic lists of last/most viewed and recently added. I did try to add a .alb file to a directory containing photos but this is not recognized.

The easiest way to do this would be to create a slideshow using TwonkyManager. I'm sure there is other software which does this as well.

There are other ways to do this using manually created WPL playlist files, but they're too complicated to explain here.

Thanks I'll have a look at TwonkyManager.
