That's correct. And actually the only reason for me to have Favorites. The problem with a "all pictures" selection is that the plugin has no idea what pictures there are. Unlike the music collection it doesn't scan your disk to get an inventory of what there is. Thus it can't shuffle or randomize all your images without a long delay (while it's finding your files) or non-random results (if it starts with a random picture of let's say the first 100 images it finds). > if there would be a way to automatically add all images to a > favourite-folder => this would also be enough for me Sounds like a crazy idea to me: I have several thousand pictures. And it would require the scan I'd like to avoid. Because as soon as I add this, new ideas and wishes will come up: smart screensavers (most recent pictures), meta data evaluation etc. I don't even want to get started :-). The current implementation of the favorites isn't suitable for large sets either. It's stored as prefs (in a flat text file, all kept in memory). Maybe I need to change this at some point. -- Michael _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
