Is there a way to start a picture slideshow by default from Pictures in the home menu (instead of first seeing the thumbnails and then starting the slideshow)?

I am looking for the same thing. And while we're on the topic: I am looking for the same thing when it comes to party mode/mix. That "shuffle all music" option.

Maybe I can help you with the music. I created a Smart Playlist (unfiltered, set to random), called one of the skin's custom menu items Shuffle and made opening the playlist the default action.
Works for me. I set the max number of songs to 250 as I figure I'll never need more than that at once, and besides, the playlist reshuffles every time it opens.

Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately sometimes, I don't get an E-mail notification, that's why it took me so long to respond. I will try to perform the steps you mention. So, every time the playlist is started it takes 250 random songs from the whole list of songs? Sounds good!
I'll let you know if it works out!

Euh.... if I follow the link it says:"There is currently no text in this page."
But if I read this correctly there is a way to alter a file and point to a slide show and party mode. I will do a search and see if I can find something on this. Thanks
