Tantalisingly, there is a tiny circle in the middle of the right hand margin with a thumbnail I recognise as possibly one of the pictures in the folder (it is a ship), but other than that, nothing.
I could now see Actions/View Slideshow ungrayed, and I could choose it, but still nothing appeared, In Kodi it was more complicated (of course), but I eventually found Serviio (Vista-PC) lurking under uPNP devices, added it, and opened it under Pictures, where it now appears.īut no pictures were shown when I chose it. Maybe this entry point is only found in later Windows versions?īut the alternative, browser-based Console load worked fine - even though, as far as I can see, it is referencing the same local copy of the Console - and I was able to teach it my Picture folder.Īfter which, serviio (Vista-PC) showed up just fine in the Album app on the TV, and I could at last view my pictures! Then the Console would not load, giving the error 'Shell_NotifyIconGetRect not found in SHEL元2.dll' or words to that effect.
I looked up serviio on Google, but it seemed the site had been hacked, as the Download' operation went to some scam site instead, and the main entry said there had been an error, But 'Version 1.8 released' seemed fine, and I downloaded the software and installed it without further incident.
