Help needed with photo viewing programs

[Cid Highwind]

I've been trying to use my DC as a picture viewer, because our DVD player is too slow to display them without me getting frustrated for the pos taking 10 seconds to put a picture onscreen.

I've been trying DCviewer, DISS and Slide Show.

So far Slide Show is the best one, but I couldn't get DISS working with DCHAKKER, so I'm going to burn the CDI to give it another test.

One problem I ran into with DCviewer and Slide Show was their inability to display my own camera's pics correctly. I'm using a Sony camera (DSC S40) and I took pictures at the highest quality (4megapixel -> 2304x1728 )
DCviewer took the upper left quarter and displayed it 4 times, and Slide Show displayed the left half and the right half was blinking black and white garbage.

I read the readme's and Slide Show said the following:

* View large JPEGs (up to 8192 pixels in x and y dimension)

I suppose it means that my resolution should be supported.

And I couldn't find any useful info on this problem in DCviewer's readme.

Does anyone here know of this problem and has any solutions? I'm thinking of tuning down the resolution to 2048x1536 ) since it doesn't have problems with lower res pictures. Also the pictures do display fine on PC and DVD player.

Any advice would be appreciated.

You could try dcplaya 2.0. It's jpeg viewing is good although you can't zoom or move the pic around.
