Thanks. Good ideas. I saw some of the Gotham slideshow changes and noticed that video playback in a picture slideshow now flashes a fullsize video "thumbnail" (with a play button) before rolling the video, which makes for a very poor user experience in a sequence of videos. Do you know by chance if that has been changed/fixed or if anyone is planning to? The most recent nightly I saw still had it that way...

For Gotham, Ulion
rewrote large parts of the picture department. That introduced the button. Also that unified behaviour to show single picture and a list. Nobody is currently working on pictures. Except some wip for raw-files.
Regarding auto refresh playlists/listings:
I've
checked to use "Library watchdog", which uses sysevents/polling, for this. While there are more ways of doing this, this seems the best way to me. Do you have any other idea's?
I really appreciate your work on pictures.

As that button is almost
fixed, could you PR your (and tolriq's) fixes to Json rpc? Together with the python addon screensaver (
https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/2877) this would be very important picture improvements for Gotham. Then upnp is the last API to be completed..
