I dont really want to view all my photos via iTunes to ATV2 and I find that viewing them through XBMC is pretty slow.

What method is everyone using?

ATV2 4.2.2 (2203)
XBMC Darwin 11.0.0

thanks all Smile

Just add a source pointing to the location of the pictures the same as you do with videos and music.

Use the context menu for pictures.

Ok will try that thanks.

Although ive just been having another play with the native photo options, and there are quite a few handy settings to choose from which I didnt notice before. Also large photo files open quicker than in XBMC. But I will try as you suggested aswell

Jimton, any sucess with this in native lowtide? I son't really want to have to use XBMC as it is an extra layer of complexity - but the native photo library is a) slooooooow b) cannot load v large libraries

Tom, I dont quite follow what do you mean by 'lowtide'?

That's not the XBMC version number. Darwin is the iOS kernel. See: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=IOS...running.3F

Lowtide is the main gui that you load into upon starting atv. Its the main launcher (that menu you scroll across to launch youtube, XBMC etc).

I am looking to be able to browse photos from within atv natively, without having to launch XBMC. The standard photo library options (through itunes) is so very slow, and fails on large libraries

I think since this is the XBMC forum - your question should go to an apple forum instead.
