Simultaneous slideshow question...

[paul1965]

I've been running simultaneous slideshows for about a month now, experimenting with a command line version for video playback on a specific monitor, and another for a standard slideshow on the other monitors. It's been working great, but apparently only because I had the standard slideshow already running when I kicked off the command line one.

Today, after a hardware upgrade and restart, I started the command line one first, then tried to start the standard one. The command line one worked great, the standard completely failed to start. I had to start it first, then run the command line next. Is there any way to run the command line version first, then be able to start the standard one next?

Hello,
by default gPhotoShow is limited to a single instance, the /m parameter followed by the monitor number disables the control, so the only way to start both is to start the standard one first without additional parameters, then the command line. The alternative is to run both from the command line with the /m parameter

Ah, I should have thought of that! I'll create a command line version of the standard one and see how they work together. Thanks!
