It seems I only have this problem with pictures in the landscape orientation. This is 99% of my pictures. Please help if possible. Thanks.
Frodo or Eden? What version of my addon?

On this machine (the one on which you're running my addon), can you access this file using that exact path?
RE: [RELEASE] iPhoto Plugin Addon for XBMC - signal.quest - 2013-03-04
Addon version 2.1.1 and XBMC 12.0 (GIT fb595f2).
Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.2.0-37-generic i686)
ls -l "/mnt/pics/iPhoto Library//Masters/2013/02/28/20130228-044730/DSC01712.JPG"

If those permissions are what you actually set, then that is probably the issue. Only the 'nobody' user can access that file.
RE: [RELEASE] iPhoto Plugin Addon for XBMC - signal.quest - 2013-03-04
Thanks for your help. I don't think I changed permissions from the default iPhoto permissions. What do you recommend that I do to correct the permissions and keep them correct for future imports into iPhoto? Thanks.

I assume "pics" is mounted over SMB/NFS/AFP/etc. What do the permissions look like on the local machine (the Mac that actually holds the library)?
RE: [RELEASE] iPhoto Plugin Addon for XBMC - signal.quest - 2013-03-04
The folder physically lives on a ubuntu desktop that I use as a fileserver (NAS). The mac laptop that has iPhoto and the XBMC frontend client both access the physical folder via NFS.
The ubuntu desktop permissions look like:
ls -l /mnt/drive2/Pictures/iPhoto\ Library/Masters/2013/02/28/20130228-044730/DSC01712.JPG
-rw------- 1 502 dialout 3982230 Feb 26 10:00 /mnt/drive2/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Masters/2013/02/28/20130228-044730/DSC01712.JPG
The MAC laptop:
ls -l /Volumes/Pictures/iPhoto\ Library/Masters/2013/02/28/20130228-044730/DSC01712.JPG
-rw------- 1 admin staff 3982230 Feb 26 10:00 /Volumes/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Masters/2013/02/28/20130228-044730/DSC01712.JPG
Thanks!
RE: [RELEASE] iPhoto Plugin Addon for XBMC - jingai - 2013-03-04
On my installations, the permissions include group and other read and write. I'd say just go ahead and at least give group/other read permissions to the entire thing (do this as root user on the NAS):
Code:
chmod -R g+r,o+r /wherever_exports_reside/drive2/Pictures/iPhoto\ Library/I'd probably give it group write permissions and add myself to the dialout group on the Ubuntu client too if it were mine. But obviously do whatever makes sense for your situation.

Hi, great plun-in, thanks.
I have an issue where some photos are not displaying. All thumbnails are showing, but some previews are not. When I select one of these to show the full image on my mac the image displays ok. But on my Android xios and my apple TV I don't see the full image either.
I'm using the latest verison of your plugin on Frodo with the confluence skin.
RE: [RELEASE] iPhoto Plugin Addon for XBMC - tom_m12 - 2013-03-17
Hello,
I really would like to fully enjoy this great iphoto plugin. However, I can only see thumbnails. Once I select a picture, screen is only black. Also slideshow does not work and screen remains black.
Any hint on whats going wrong or I should change to fully enjoy the plugin?
RE: [RELEASE] iPhoto Plugin Addon for XBMC - jingai - 2013-03-17
If you only see a thumbnail, it's most likely that the path is wrong. Check out the path rewriting feature of the addon in its settings, and if the library is unmanaged (photos reside outside the iPhoto Library folder), make sure you specify that.
RE: [RELEASE] iPhoto Plugin Addon for XBMC - tom_m12 - 2013-03-17
yes indeed my library is referenced.It took me some time to get the paths set-up, but maybe thats still the root cause. From your read me instructions I could note exactly figure out which will be the right path settings. Could you please send me an example. My library is sitting on a NAS with NFS
RE: [RELEASE] iPhoto Plugin Addon for XBMC - oldgreg - 2013-03-17
My library is managed. And I can see most images, it's only some that do not display properly
RE: [RELEASE] iPhoto Plugin Addon for XBMC - jingai - 2013-03-18
Select an image that doesn't display correctly and then quit XBMC. Post the log file somewhere for me.

Thanks for taking a look.

Code:

I suspect it's the space in the last part of the path that is the issue. Can you see if that file actually exists? If it doesn't exist with the space, try replacing that one character with a + or a %.
