Hi, I'm new to github...and I installed slide in a Raspi 3. The slider works fine. The pictures are displayed in a random order. Is there a posibility to display the picturen in a sequential order and the from beinning again (shuffle) . In the description is a switch called [-s] that should be placed after teh pictures folder. But it fails.. Is doesn't matter where in which order I set the [-s] the slider doesn'work then.

Thanks for advice.. rgds. juan

Hi @Elbab2021, yes it sounds like the shuffle mode should do what you want. Can you share the exact command you're trying?

Elbab2021 commented 3 years ago

Hi cmd line ist inserted into the boot startup function of my Raspi..

@slide -t 10 -o 200 -p /home/pi/cloud/Diashow // working with random pictures selection with this parameters the slide works fine, but the pictures are taken randomly from the path. In the slide description is mentioned that the shuffle parameter [s] should be after the path.. like the [r] parameter

@slide -t 10 -o 200 -p /home/pi/cloud/Diashow -s // not working if I set them there the slide doesn't start up. I tried the shuffle parameter in different positions of the cmd line, with no success..

...any idea?

Slide installation done under user : sudo su with this cmd's: wget https://github.com/NautiluX/slide/releases/download/v0.9.0/slide_pi_stretch_0.9.0.tar.gz tar xf slide_pi_stretch_0.9.0.tar.gz mv slide_0.9.0/slide /usr/local/bin/

User after boot: pi

thx... Juan
