Can you play a picture?
« on: July 06, 2006, 12:33:48 pm »
Minor quible but pictures have the option to play them.
Would it be possible to change this to "Show"
or something similar?

This was pointed out by a friend.
I wouldn't have noticed if you left me with it all year.

Yeah, I agree. There's a lot of terminology used in MC that should be more dynamic based on what the selected media type is.

I, personally, like the consistency of "playing" video, audio, and a photo "slideshow".  Keep in mind, when you "play" just one picture in MC, it's really just paused on one image in a slideshow.

I think "Play" is correct. MC actually plays the pictures and returns to a blank display after the playback if more than one image is played.

IMHO, MC does not have a proper "Show" display yet.
