My Digital Entertainer - My Photos

Problem viewing photos

Toddy — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 17:27:57 GMT

Hi, I've just configured my EVA8000HD on a wireless network after a lot of frustration (subject of another posting) and am finding problems with photo viewing. When I try to view as a slide show with full screen the full screen wont hold and it kind of jumps around all over the place. Any ideas ? When I tried it before I had the PC config working with the photos on a USB stick it seemed to be OK. I'm connecting SCART at the moment but intend to use HDMI later when everything is working properly. Any advice would be appreciated

Photos not displaying in correct aspect ratio.

Personally, I just haven't found anything to match Adobe Photoshop in endless quantity of options and ease of use. If anyone has another favorite, it would be great to hear about it and why you like it so much.
