Hi,
i try to use FIM for a picture frame with Raspberry PI. The picture frame should work without any input device and should cycle the pictures which are on the SD card. (THis pictures will be added and removed in the background)
I try to achive this with the following command:
fim -R -a -u --slideshow 5 /home/slideshow/pictures
The problem is that the slideshow stops at the end and I can't find a solution to restart the slideshow. One more requirement is that the picture list should be rebuild after each cycle.
Hopefully very simple for you. ;-)
Can you help me?
I am using a RASPBIAN Debian Wheezy Release date:2015-05-05
I installed: fim-0.5-trunk
FIM -V is showing me this:

I tryed to use also the following command in:
/home/slideshow/fimrc
:autocmd 'PostExecutionCycle' '*' 'quit';
I though this is closing fim but i can still find it in the program list.
Thank you in advance.
Best Regards
Chris
