Picture Library Slideshow Web Part - Is it possible to switch between two image librarys in one slideshow

In our office we have a screen at the front desk that runs a PP slideshow showing welcome messages to guests arriving.
SharePoint may not be the solution, but the overall objective is to find a way to have a library of X number of photos (say the library size is 30 images) and a separate library of X number of welcome messages (usually ~5 images).
We want the slideshow to randomly pull 5 images from the 1st pool and then play the images in the 2nd Pool.
Let me know if you have heard of a solution similar to this. Thanks!

Hi Twirlz03,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display teo picutre libraries in a picture slideshow web part in SharePoint 2010.
By default, one Picture Slideshow web part only display images fron one specifical picutre library, it is unable to apply for multiple picture libraries.
You can try to utilize Content Query web part to aggregate picture items from the site collection or site. However, you mean that you want the slideshow to randomly pull 5 images from first library and then play the images in the second library, I’m afriad
that it is hard to achieve it.
More information about aggregating picture items , please refer to section 4 of the link below:

Eliminate White Space in Picture Library Slideshow Web Part

On my site, I am using picture library slideshow web parts on two different pages, and one of them is giving me trouble with unwanted white space between the photos and the back, pause, forward control buttons (see photo below).
In an attempt to resolve this issue, I have tried numerous things. I have resized the width and height of the web part itself to many different sizes, but to not avail. I have cropped and resized all of the photos to be the exact same size of 300x200
pixels. I have used CSS to display the photos to their actual size rather than the standard preview size. With all of this in mind, my second photo library web part on another page works perfectly. This was white space problem was only an issue until
I resized/cropped the photos in that case. For this page, however, that solution is not working.
Does anyone have any clue as to how I can remove this unwanted white space?
Thank you!

Hi Stacey,
From your description, you would like to remove white space in picture library slideshow web parts. You used CSS to solve it however a web part still show white spaces.
Please press F12 and see if there is div tag in white space, if there is, try remove it.

In addition, try edit web part properties > Display with > choose No Title or Description.

How can I fix the image size in a "Picture Library Slideshow Web Part"

When I upload images to be used in the Slideshow Web Part they become skewed because they are different sizes. Is there a way to fix this besides uploading images that are all the same size?
Thanks,
Kathleen

Display Slide Show Images within fixed size
The Picture Library Slide Show Web Part show the images stored in a picture library with slide show effect.
This slide show web part displays the images with it's original size. Due to this the web part changes its size according to the image size. If we want the slide show to run within the specific size on the page then we need to control the size of the images
to the fixed length during runtime.
To achieve this we need to add the CEWP above the picture Library Slide Show web part & insert the following script in that web part.
<style type="text/css">
.ms-WPBody TD {
    PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: auto !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
.ms-WPBody TD DIV {
    PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 100% !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
.ms-WPBody TD IMG {
    PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 260px !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
190px !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px; align: center
.s4-wpcell-plain {
    PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 100% !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
.ms-PartSpacingVertical {
    MARGIN-"color:#783f04;font-family:'Courier New',Courier,monospace;" />}
.style1 {
    COLOR: #808080
}</style>
We can fix the height & width of the image in the .ms-WPBody TD IMG css.

How to display original images in SlideShow web part
Step 1. Save below JavaScript code to file, for example in SlideshowObjectInitializer.txt and upload it to SiteAssets Library
<script type="text/javascript">
function SlideshowObjectInitializer() {
ShowPic = (function(ShowPicOrig) {
return function() {
var ssObj = arguments[0]; //SlideShow object
var curPicIdx=ssObj.index; //current picture index
ShowPicOrig.apply(this, arguments); //call original ShowPic
//apply some changes to display original picture in SlideShow control
ssObj.image.src = ssObj.linkArray[curPicIdx]; //display original image instead of web image
//change picture & container size to auto instead of fixed (by default web image size is used)
ssObj.image.setAttribute('height','100%');
ssObj.image.setAttribute('width','100%');
var cell = ssObj.cell;
cell.style.width = 'auto';
cell.style.height = 'auto';
cell.style.display = '';
var pcell = ssObj.cell.parentNode;
pcell.style.width = 'auto';
pcell.style.height = 'auto';
})(ShowPic);
ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(SlideshowObjectInitializer, 'imglib.js');
</script>
Step 2. Add CEWP on page where Slideshow web part is located and in the Content Editor tool pane, under Content Link, type
/SiteAssets/SlideshowObjectInitializer.txt.

Remove empty space in Picture Library Slideshow web part

I'm using Picture Library Slideshow web part in one of my pages. The web part itself is working fine, but I'm a bit annoyed by the white space the web part is consuming.
The web part puts lots of empty space between the web part header and the picture and also to the bottom of the web part.
The Slideshow web part generates the CSS on the fly, so I cannot really get a control of it cause it doesn't have any static CSS classes(that I know of, at least).
How could I get rid of these white spaces?

Hi Pekch,
Thanks for your post.
You can achieve this using JQuery.
1.
Download
JQuery to your SharePoint Server, and then add a Content Editor Web Part to the page;
2.
View the source code using IE developer(Press F12), the code likes below:
<td style="width: 195px; height: 213px;">
                <div style="..." id="MSOPictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart_ctl00_m_g_ffa17524_ffa7_44e7_974c_1756a39257b9_cell">
                </div>
</td>
3.
So now, you can find the control whose id is started with “MSOPictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart” using the JQuery Code below:
jQuery('div[@id^=”MSOPictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart”]')
4.
Remove the style of the “div” and his parent “td”. Because there is a “Width” attribute in both levels.

Picture Library Slideshow Web Part

I am able to create a slide show via Picture Library Slideshow Web Part but the title and description will not show up. I have tried all the options but
only the picture shows and not the picture title. I was hoping to have the picture title appear below the image. Can this be fixed or is it something I have to do without?
Thank you.

Hi Sarah,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to show Title of the image under the image in Picture Library Slideshow Web Part.
I recommend to edit the Picture Library Slideshow Web Part and select Title only below image under Display with and make sure that the picture in the picture library has value in Title field.
Best regards.
Thanks

I would like the share an iTunes library between two different accounts on one Mac. How do I do this?

iTunes no longer works properly (aka at all) while using one of the user accounts set up on my iMac. It does, however, work when logging in under another user account on the same iMac. (if any of you can help me solve this issue that would be perfect). If there is no solution can anyone help with my request to share an iTunes library between two different accounts on one Mac. How do I do this?

jc_hering wrote:
that works for anything he purchases after he creates the new account. What about his current music that currently resides in my itunes library? How can I get his current music out of my library into his new account/library?? Thanks..
Copy it to his computer into his iTunes library and authorize his computer with the iTunes account used to purchase them..
You cannot tranfser items from one iTunes account to another. Purchased items remain part of the iTunes account is was purchased with.
iTunes account - used to purchase items
iTunes library - where purchases (and CD RIPs) go on the computer

Can I put my library on an external hard drive and use it between two computers?

Can I put my library on an external hard drive and use it between two computers? I have two MBP; I will refer to one as computer A and to the other as computer B. I would like to be able to plug in my external hard drive, boot up iTunes, and if there were any changes made to the library previous to its last time accessed on this compluter, they show up on that computer, regardless of being imported on the other.
A hypothetical example: I import three albums called 1, 2, and 3 on computer A over a week or so. I take the external hard drive and plug it into computer B. The entire library which was visible on A, is visible on B, including albums 1, 2, and 3.
Is this possible? If so, what files need to be copied onto the external? I'm trying some different combinations, trial and error basically. Hopefully someone knows and can answer before I mess up my library. I also want to do this to free up space on my computer. All importing will be done from disc.

iTunes/Preferences/Advanced : point your iTunes to the new location of the Library.
Set "Share on local network" in the Sharing tab, and you or everyone on the local network can play your music.
You make a backup first of the Library.
Move the follwing to the new location:
/Users/your username/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music
have fun.

How to switch between two query in Web templete.

Hi all,
Here i am facing problem to switch between two query in web template by using one 'table' web item. is there any way to use hyperlink 'SAP_BW_URL' and we can switch to query. here i am using these HTML code..
<table><tr><td class="SAPBEXBtnStdBorder" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tr><td>
<table><tr><td class="sapbexbtnstd" ><A href="<SAP_BW_URL cmd='reset_item' item='table_data' query_ID='ZSD_ZSD_M01_Q20' apply_cmd_on_target= "X">" >Switch to other query</A></td></tr></table>
but i am not getting correct functionality.
please help me to solve this problem.
I know the best way to say thanks in SDN.
thanks
Kiran Patel

Kiran,
Use the web api reset_data_provider as links or in select option in HTML.
   Onchange event of this select option should call JAVASCRIPT method and
   this in turn resets the current dataprovider to your concerned one.
   How to change graphs:
   The graph item has the default data provider:
   <object>
         <param name="OWNER" value="SAP_BW"/>
         <param name="CMD" value="GET_ITEM"/>
         <param name="NAME" value="CHART_1"/>
         <param name="ITEM_CLASS" value="CL_RSR_WWW_ITEM_CHART"/>
         <param name="DATA_PROVIDER" value="DATAPROVIDER_1"/>
         <param name="TMP_CHART_DATA_HANDLE" value="IIP_49MOXB0UVNOMM6JOZMZU7QO21"/>
         ITEM:            CHART_1
   </object>
So if you change the DATAPROVIDER_1 using RESET_DATA_PROVIDER to your concerned DP, this changes chart as well !!
   Please use this method and refer to sample code for Onchange Event on SELECT OPTION:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<script>
function callDP() {
     if(document.forms[0].dp.value == "1") {
        //form your URL here..
       url = SAP_BW_URL_Get() + "&CMD=RESET_DATA_PROVIDER&DATA_PROVIDER_1=..&...";
        SAPBWOpenURL(url);
        //or docuemtn.location.href = url..
        //etc..
</script>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<form>
<select name="dp" onChange="javascript:callDP();">
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
</select>
</form>
</BODY>
</HTML>
HOPE THIS HELPS !!!

Slideshow Web Part item limit

I've got a picture library with over 700 images (and growing) but the web part, set to display sequentially, is only showing 300 images before looping. When it's set to random it shows more!?! I need it to display sequentially as people are going to be
going through the images and filling in an excel spreadsheet when they recognise someone in the image. If it's set to random it's going to give them a stinking headache! Is there any way of disabling the limit on sequential order?? If not, what are my options?
So far, the slideshow is the only way I've found to display the images quickly (without having to click on each pic in the library, which will be a very slow process), and not being able to change this very restrictive limit is incredibly frustrating (and
shortsighted on Microsoft's part)!
The only other option I could think of was multiple picture libraries linking to multiple web parts. Is this really all I can do??

People have asked similar questions on LinkedIn and SharePoint Stack Exchange, and it seems there is a 300 limit when displaying sequentially, 1500 when displaying randomly. You could look at using some custom web parts. Amrein Engineering have a few: Image
Rotator, Banner Rotator and Slideshow. None of them are expensive and you could ask them first if there are any limits.

PSC

Thank you Ross.
The entire DVD containing Quick Time movies (Final CutExpress project) and slideshow was done in iPhoto. The Final Cut project was rendered prior to export to QT, the slideshow was sent to iDVD withoutrendering. The slideshow with most of the pictures from my still camera incombination with stills from movie clips and some downloaded from the Internet.After burning, the movie playback is perfect but the slideshow is not. The slideshow containing 3 differentkinds of pictures; those from my still camera looks OK; the stills from themovie clips and from the Internet are not. I don’t have much knowledge in this game, but I think NTSCwith frame size 720x480, and the downloaded picture Item Property shows most ofthem are between 400 to 500 x 300 to 600, may be both of them are not suitablefor TV screen while the stills from my still camera looks OK because they are2048x1536. Please enlightenme. Once again, thank you so much,I really appreciate the time you offered.

I would like to transfer my itunes library on my pc to my wifes Imac which has her itunes library on it. Is is possible to do this and have two separate librarys on one imac? If so, what is the best way to transfer it?

Is it possoble to transfer my itunes library from my pc onto my wifes Imac which has her itunes library and establish two accounts on her Imac? If so what is the best method to accomplish this? I have a itouch player.

There are many ways to accomplish this, depending on how you want it. Setting up multiple accounts is easy under System Preferences:Accounts. After that open iTunes on your newly created account.
Now, is where you could do a couple of different things. If your PC is sharing the same network and you are able to see the files on the PC from the iMac, then just drag and drop the iTunes Library music folder structure (just the part that contains the actual music) into the iTunes window. If you can't access the PC files, then you need to copy them all to an external hard drive, and import them w/ the same method.
If you don't want to create a second root-level account for yourself, but want to keep the music library separate, create another iTunes Library. You do this by holding down the Option key while starting iTunes, then click on the Create Library option. Then import the music using either method above.
