Version 6.0 released : transitions

As promised before, I worked on transitions between two photos for this next release. The implemented transitions are :
  • Dissolve : photos fading into each other.
  • Fade in/fade out 
  • Zoom in and zoom out: The next photo replaces the previous one from inside or outside
  • Slide left and right : The next photo replaces the previous one from left or right
  • Random : any of the above
To make playing with the above transitions possible, I used a sliding menu to change the layout or transition during slideshow playback.

  1. Installed your app to view around 2600 photo, stored on sd card. But after around 200 photos the screen stays Black. But the counter is still running. Quit and start still gives black screen. Have to restart the tablet to Let it work again. But after a while I get the same problem.
    Please advice.

  2. Thank you for the bug report.
    Most of the time black screen means it can't load a photo. In your scenario however that seems unlikely. Without a definite crash, it is very difficult to debug a problem like that.
    Using a tool like catlog https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nolanlawson.logcat you could check if there is an exception in the log, in that case I could probably fix it.

  3. hi. Thanks for great app but I have the same problem. After a while the screen stays black and the counter/pic number is still running. For example I have 100 photos. All photos are shown ok but after some rounds the screen stays black. Very annoying :-) Any good ideas what to do ? Thanks ! /mikael

  4. I'm afraid the answer remains the same. As I can't reproduce the problem, it is difficult for me to find the problem. Maybe the log file as described above could help me or I can provide you a version with more logging enabled to find out.

  5. yes, I understand that it is hard for you to find a solution for this. The weird thing is that I need to restart the tablet (Galaxy tab 10.1) to make it work again. If I just close the program and open the slideshown again it only show a black picture. I will see if I can create a log file if I have the time. (or if you could enable more logging). Thanks !

  6. Closing an app doesn't stop that process in android. Maybe just stopping the process will be enough.

    Settings > Manage Applications> Menu button > Filter by “Running.” > Select application > Force stop
    or long press on home shows all running processes. Swiping it away stops it.
