is there a way to configure a channel that is a slideshow using images from the image library?

#

yes that's the purpose of the image library

#

let me find what i documented about it

#

```- Add experimental and incomplete Images library kind

Image libraries have fallback metadata added like Other Video libraries (every folder is a tag)
Image library items currently default to a duration of 15 seconds
- The Media > Images page can be used to configure image durations at a folder level
- Child folders with unset durations will inherit the closest ancestor's duration

#

then just add to a collection and schedule like any other content

I think i had done it properly. I get images listed in the playout with 15 second duration. But on my player it is showing 60 minute programs with no information and won't play anything.

can you try the channel preview in etv's channels page?

It seems to be working there. Just not in my viewers. I have tried a few different ones on my devices. Tivimate, iptv smarters and televizo.

#

Actually never mind. I tried quitting and restarting ErsatzTV for the fifth time and it is now working.

#

Thanks for the help
