is it possible to keep a zoom setting and advance/go back in the file list, maybe with a script or something? that's more of an obstacle to viewing comics than the cbr/cbz thing. i can always unzip or unrar a file on my own computer but it's a pain to hit zoom three times to see a page, then unzoom three times, advance to next image, then zoom in again. it's probably not behavior you want with all images but it would be a useful mode. granted i don't really know how difficult it would be.
this is just icing on the cake stuff, but it sounds simple enough that it's sorely tempting me.

not sure but i think this requires a small change in the way movement is picked up in my pictures.
iirc, in zoom mode, the dpad overrides for movement. this is probably mainly for the remote, though i'm not 100% sure why as there should be sufficient buttons to not have this.
cheers,
jonathan

keep an eye at the compression method used.
if it's anything but storing (no compression) or deflation, it isn't supported. this is due to the fact that the underlieing library (zlib) only supports deflation...
if they are deflated there's a bug somewhere and i'll have a look (preferably with access to a non-working file..)

hi,
i finally figured out (i think) why you guys are having problems.
the code was only done to handle archives with files in the root dir.
it seems most .cbr/.cbz out there has a dir within the archives.
please report your findings.

in testing with the august 4th cvs, i'm finding that it won't open .cbr files. if you rename it .cbz, it opens, but no pictures are viewable. if you rename the file to .rar, it opens, and there are no problems.

make sure that
04-08-05 fixed: cbr/cbz support. if pictures was in a folder, playback would fail.
is in changelog.txt.
if it is, please pm me (again...) the file you provided me with earlier works fine here...

(hopefully) found the issue.
a workaround until the fix hits anon is to enable 'hide parent folder items' for the my pictures settings..
