Photo screensaver, streamed from NAS


Recommended Posts

Hi

Got my Vega yesterday and have installed Paul's ROM and Performance Pack - very pleased so far!

Can anyone recommend a screensaver app for the Vega which will kick in automatically after a predefined time, whenever the device is charging. I'd need the screensaver to be capable of streaming photos from a folder (and subfolders) on my UPnP-enabled Synology NAS drive.

One of my justifications for getting the Vega was that we could use it as a digital photoframe when not in use - wife won't be too impressed if I can't get this up and running :)

Cheers

Neil

Can't help but will be very interested in finding out - I was planning to do the same (photoframe) but had planned to copy photos to SD card and use aiPhotoframe or Photo Frame Deluxe.

Is this app any use?

Looks exactly what I was looking for - currently trying it on my Tattoo as I don't get my Vega until Christmas day :)

Thanks for the suggestion. Netslide works great, with the only problem being that it doesn't display photos in full screen, which is something the developer is aware of and may get round to fixing.

I also found the slideshow mode with Synology's DS Photo+ app but this is less flexible because you have to group your photos into albums and it can only play one album at a time. Also, the delay between picture changes is very short and I can't find a way of changing this.
