Is it possible to make a picture slideshow start-up immediately when XBMC loads? - I know it's possible to do it with music and you can make a screen-saver occur after a minute, but it would be good if the images appears strait away...
This is because I'm using XBMC to display photos on an HDTV - like one of those picture frames you can buy for rip of prices!

Is this the right idea?:
import xbmc
xbmc.executebuiltin('xbmc.slideshow(smb:\\Mark:******@192.168.0.3\\Shared_Photos\\)')

Well for the time being I managed to make it work on a local directory -
#Import xbmc
xbmc.executebuiltin('XBMC.RecursiveSlideShow(F:\\Pictures\\)')
That'll do for the time being, I hadn't used RecursiveSlideShow for the network share, so I guess i'll give that a shot another time.
Still, I feel I've achieved something!
