subfolder support, slideshow controll, ...

[wutske]

I recently started using gbpvr (tough I'm supposed to study ), it's realy cool, but I have some wishes .

1)It would be cool if it would support subfolders. eg, I have my music stored in folders for each artist (if I have several songs of that artist). If I would like to play random songs, from random artists (or albums), this seems not possible.
The same for photo slideshows, sometimes I have several folders for an event (each source gets its own folder).

2) The slideshow is rather slow, is there a way to controll the speed (in seconds)?

3) I don't know if anybody is familiar with Float Mobile (http://fma.sourceforge.net/index2.htm). One of the features allows you to control several programs (like windows media player) using the scripting. Could this be possible for gbpvr? I am absolutely no programmer, but I would like to give it a try after the exams, but I think I'll need all keyboard controlls for that.
Would be cool if I could use it as a remote control .

4) Better fast-forward support (music and video) (eg. pressing and holding shift+F fast-forwards and the longer you ffwd, the faster, releasing shift+F continues playing).

That's it . Great software, going to try it out more after exams :p . I hope my TV is going to be good enough ...

Try some of the different Music Plugin's. They might have the features you want.

Try the short skip in the config. I find it works much better, but you can also skip forward a specific amount of time by hitting the number keys then the skip ffd key.

for instnace to skip 10min hit 1, 0, then "CTRL -->" or your FFW skip key on the remote.
