Raspberry Pi Slideshow

Has anyone used Raspberry Pi and this software http://www.binaryemotions.com/digital-signage/raspberry-slideshow/ or similar to show JPEG photos ? Bob

I will check later when I am home. We don't use the photos part very much.

Assorted episodes feature assorted Pis.

Episode 3 tells how to make a long distance Wi-Fi adapter though some of the hardware they used is hard to find now days (As it happens I have one). There are alternatives however.

dsteiman Thanks for the info. Does the program allow changing the picture sequence time and does it loop ? Bob

We use the Raspberry Pi 2 for media center both in the RV and at home. The software we use is Openelec which is a port of the Kodi media center software. It supports movies, music, and photos.

I don't know about that software specifically, but you can try different software and the Raspberry Pi 2 is certainly powerful enough to display a slideshow of photos.
