Cbr files open in slideshow
#1
Has something changed recently that would cause cbr files to go straight to slideshow when opened? It's been working fine for me, until I updated to 19742 tonight.. Tried one of my older builds from a few weeks ago and it's not happening.. I'll investigate it further to see which build it stops working, but thought I'd ask in case it's something obvious..

Ok, I narrowed it down further..

Works fine in 19161

19255. When opening a cbr file, it opens in slideshow.. Was this intentional?

Looking at the trac, I'm guessing Changeset 19181 is what causes this..

Hi

I had the same problem when I upgraded. If you go into settings and uncheck one of the options (can't remember which one - it might be slideshow effects) it all works as it did before...

Short of raising the 'time per image' setting, I don't see any other options that effect it..

Hi

Can't remember the particular option - when I get home tomorrow, i'll post the exact steps

I just wanted to make sure there wasn't a new automatic slideshow option that I was missing somewhere.. or that something else was suddenly causing this..

but I guess I'll just make a ticket for it..

Not a big deal since I can set the slideshow to 100secs, but would be better if it were fixed..

Hi, sorry I forgot to post..

On the PMIII skin go into Settings>Pictures>Slideshow, then uncheck the "pan and zoom effects" option..

That will solve the problem..

Ohh.. Thanks for posting.. That's not the issue I was having.. I do have that option turned off though..

With the latest build, when I open a cbr file, it flips the page every 9 seconds (or however long the slideshow timer is set for) Which used to only happen if I clicked slideshow.. So I had to set the timer higher otherwise the pages flip on their own..

Are you not having that issue?

Hi

I don't think I'm having that problem because I can read my comics fine - I haven't noticed XBMC going to the next image until I press the 'next' button.

I'm using 9.04 alpha release (I don't know what SVN it is) at the moment.

I'll check tomorrow and report back..

Hi

Yeah I have this bug too. The reason I haven't noticed before is that I read my comics on my TV and zoom in automatically so that I can read the words. The transistion stops after you've zoomed in

Yea, I noticed that as well.. I always zoom in too..

It's not a big deal, but it's not something that was happening until a few weeks ago..

Thanks for confirming.. It's always hard getting to the bottom of comic problems on here since there are so few of us..
