Picture Slideshow low quality - sergiollag1 - 2018-02-17
I use Kodi 17.3 on Raspberry Pi to play photos as a slideshow from a upnp server in the same lan. The slideshow plays ok, but Kodi is downscaling the photos to a crap resolution. Is there any hidden config file where this can be tweak so the photos are shown in their native resolution?
Also is there a way to disable the zoom option for the slideshow so that the photos are displayed in their native aspect ratio? The slideshow is zooming the photos to fit the whole screen. The picture settings in the ui don't work.
Thanx.

It could be a consequence of using UPnP, why are you not using a proper file sharing protocol such as SMB or NFS?

Thanx, I fixed the zooming issue with the advancedsettings.xml file. However, the resolution was still crap. I started using NFS instead of upnp and the photos resolution is 100% now.

Thanx a lot. I started using NFS and it is good now.
