Show filenames when viewing slideshows on AppleTV?

I want to show a slideshow of images on a television. The only catch is the filenames have to be displayed along with the image. Is this something AppleTV can do? I need the image and corresponding filename to appear on the screen at the same time.
If AppleTV doesn't do this (and I have it feeling it doesnt) what software, hardware or applications will do this?
My current not ideal solution is to run a slideshow in iPhone (which does show filenames) and connect my laptop to the TV. I can then use an Apple remote to scroll through the images. It's not the best set up, I'm looking for something which does the same thing but is more convinient.
Any ideas?

Hi Michael,
I bought the 60GB iPod last week together with a dock (for Color iPod) which has 3 outputs:
- dock connector
- audio mini-jack output
- s-video output.
I connected the latter with an s-video cable to my TV's s-video bus and was able to present the slideshow on TV without a problem (imported from Adobe Photoshop Elements (3.0) using iTunes)
In order to be able to listen to music (either within a slideshow or just "normal" playback) I have connected the jack-output to my stereo equipment using a jack to RCA cable. Works like a breeze over here but I guess you definitely need a dock for this setup.
Hope this is of any help to you.

  • I am using using IDVD to create slide shows.  When viewed on my computer the pictures are clear and of high quality.  When I burn the slide show to a disk and play it back, the pictures are blurry and of poor quality.

    I am using IDVD to create slide shows.  When viewed on my computer, the pictures are clear and of high quality.  When I burn the slide show to a disk and play it back, the pictures are blury and of poor quality.  Is there a setting that controls the quality of the burn and if there is, where do I find it?  Thank you.

    The Mac software - iPhoto, iMovie, and iDVD are not the best with the Ken Burns effect (zoom in/out effect), so you might want to minimize that effect; also, if your subjects are wearing stripes for instance, that will have an effect if you zoom. There is better software available for slideshows; however, I do not know of any that is free (and does a good job). I've used Photo to Movie for some time; it does a fine job even in HD, but you have to pay for it. I use iDVD extensively, but only to add a menu, theme, special effects, etc. and then to burn it.

  • Photos in collections not showing up when viewed from a higher level

    I am using Lightroom 3.2 and have many collections and collection sets. Recently I moved a bunch of my collection sets inside another collection set to better organize things, but when I did the images in the moved collections no longer show up when I view their imediate-parent collection set. When I select the collection set it says "No photos in selected collection", but when I select the individual collections inside it, the photos show up. Also, if I un-move (not undo, just move back) the collection set it shows the photos that are in its collections as it should.
    Has anyone else had this problem? Am I missing a preference somewhere? Is there a bug in Lightroom?
    Thanks.

    I'm having the exact same problem in 3.3.
    To check it out, I created new collection sets and moved things around, and then the missing pictures reappeared ...
    Nothing for it but to go and work out just where all of the problems are and fix them all by hand, while hoping that the same issue won't follow me around messing up the new collection sets I create ... oh, the joys of flaky computer s/w
    If anyone knows of a way to address this, I'd REALLY like to know
    Thanks,
    Gary

  • When viewing slideshow my photo playlist stops and randomly plays for a view seconds only

    When I go to view a slideshow of photos the playlist I assigned to play either doesn't play or randomly kicks in during slideshow.  I have assigned several different playlist to my photo slideshow and they all do the same thing.  I am connected to a Mac.  No problems with pictures just my playlist.

    When I say playlist I mean music playlist.

  • Create a DNG file that does not show changes when viewed by others

    I am adjusting my RAW Images in Adobe Lightroom and want to export them as DNG without betraying the evidence of my post production efforts- is there a way to save an altered file as a DNG without showing the client which changes I have made when they open and review the files in CS3 (bridge/camera raw)?

    > is there a way to save an altered file as a DNG without showing the client which changes I have made when they open and review the files in CS3 (bridge/camera raw)?
    The raw data itself is not affected by the adjustments, only the metadata. This means, that the adjustments you made are recorded in the DNG file in XMP format, which is quite clear-text, like
    > +1.0
       25
       0
       False
       Custom
         0, 0
         22, 30
         51, 68
         128, 128
         206, 149
         255, 255
    As this can be seen by anyone, who knows where and what for to look, you need to have ACR record the adjustments in XMP sidecar files (which is a better way anyway, you can archive the original file and the adjustments separate).

  • Adjustments made to neff files in camera raw don't show up when viewed in windows 8 pictures

    why don't changes to neff files show up in windows 8 ?

    Indeed, even with the Windows NEF Codec, it only reads the previews (not XMP..), and since ACR won't update the previews, the best you can do is get the Nikon view. I was hoping Phil Harvey would enhance exiftool to be able to write an embedded preview - presumably, it wouldn't be that hard (since it can read them), but there is NO tool I know of that can write embedded previews into proprietary raws (other than camera manufacturer software), do I don't know any way to work around..
    PS - I would LOVE to learn of such a tool, so do tell if you learn of one - thanks.
    Note: if you really want to view Lr/ACR adjusted image (from your raw files) in Windows, consider converting to DNG - then the preview matches your adjustments, or does once you update it.
    The other option is to export and view rgb files instead of raws.

  • Help ! web page navigation links are not broken but do not show up when viewing on browser

    multiple page website in progress, links checked site wide; none broken...linked all pages relative to: Site Root.When opening content file and index.html file on my desktop only the background color appears. What have I overlooked?

    Nancy O, since you were kind enough to respond I thought that I would ask you for more help.  I took your suggestion and also went to the Adobe  DW help / preview pages section this is what I found:
    Note:  Content linked with a site root-relative path does not appear when you preview documents in a local browser unless you specify a testing server, or select the Preview Using Temporary File option in Edit > Preferences > Preview In Browser. This is because browsers don’t recognize site roots—servers do.
    Nancy O  I linked the 12 pages together as Site Root-Relative and I do as you said to no avail.   Since this website does not have a domain name (yet);   is it possible that I may have to relink all as Document-Relative? and if so is there a faster way than manually switching one by one ( it's over 270 links)    Thank you again for your help.

  • Need to set Custom Toolbar in Reader 9 when viewed in IE7

    I'm deploying Reader 9.4 to XP SP3 workstations.  Using the Customization Wizard I was able to drag down registry keys that turned on the Select Tool and the Hand tool however these do not show up when viewing PDF's in IE7.  So on my test machine I open a PDF in IE7, right-click the PDF bar at the top of the PDF (not the IE toolbar) and can select the tools I want to add.  The Select tool and the Hand tool.  Fine.  Now that workstation has those tools forever.  Now for the rest of my 5000 deployments, I need to know where I can customize my deployment to do that?  I can't seem to find a registry entry that the Wizard lets me drag down.  I even dragged the entire HKey_Current_User\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0 registry structure.  Still no joy.
    Anyone know how I can turn on these two tools as a deployment customization for viewing PDF's in IE7?
    thanks,
    Marc

    This is not a scripting question. The solution needs to be in the custom
    application you're using to create the PDF files.
    The "Keywords" field is just a part of the document metadata, which any PDF
    library should be able to edit.

  • My apple TV will not show my iPhotos travel photos in sequence. I set up a sequence of photos that STAY in sequence when viewing in iPhoto on my iMac, but they do not show in sequence when my Apple TV shows them on my TV screen. My Apple TV is MC 572C/A

    My Apple TV will not show my photos in iPhoto on my iMac in the same sequence of images that I can see when viewing the iPhoto photos on my iMac. This is especially frustrating when I try to show my travel pictures in sequence on my TV. I have to resort to showing them on my iMac which defeats the principle purpose for purchasing my MacTV. Does anyone have a solution?
    My Apple TV is Model MC 572C/A and the software is 5.2.1 (6025)
    My iMac is Mac OSX version 10.7.5
    THANKS!
    Doug May

    I can't recall whether slideshows are ordered by title or date, but you can manually re-arrange the albums in iPhoto, then batch change them once you have the order you want.

  • Organizer does not show filename and extension viewing photo

    Windows 7
    Photoshop Elements 8
    I previously had Photoshop Elements 8 on a computer with Windows XP that died. My photos, thankfully, were on an external hard drive. My new computer has Windows 7. I installed Photoshop Elements 8 on it and imported my photos.
    Previously when viewing a photo in Organizer in the largest size obtainable by clicking on the thumbnail, the photo would show tags and the filename with extension. Now, It does not show the filename and I have to click properties and get the little window that opens to show me the name. I couldn't find anything in preferences to set the filename option. Can someone please tell me how to do it?
    Thanks, Eva

  • Yahoo mail attachments will not show in View Slideshow

    receiving mail Yahoo shows two options for attachments - View Slideshow and Download. When trying to View Slideshow, loading gears keeps spinning and spinning but never loads using Firefox 8.0.1
    Cache and cookies are cleared regularly and again just now - still no luck. Addons are disabled - still no luck. So Yahoo Customer Care says problem is with Firefox, since it will load on Safari.

    I'm with BT Internet which uses Yahoo's Neo Mail and have the same problem (plus others). This applies to every browser I have tried (Firefox, Safari, Chrome, SeaMonkey, Camino, Opera).
    I sometimes find opening, closing, re-opening an email prods the slideshow into action.
    Problems include: email thumbs don't show pics (slideshow thumbs usually do), pictures will not load in slideshow, if they do only first eight or so load (sometimes cured by scrolling through thumbs in email).
    Also slideshow crops many pictures, but is OK full screen.
    This is on Macs running 10.6.8 and 10.4.11 with latest versions of Firefox/TenFourFox.
    Googling shows other people have this problem.

  • HT204291 When viewing a slideshow i can't get portrait pcs to appear vertical.

    When viewing a slideshow on apple tv my portrait oriented pictures show up landscape on tv. This does not happen when viewing on ipad where they rotate to correct orientation. If mirroring pic one at a time they are also fine. Problem only happens when using slideshow. Does anyone know if i have missed a setting and how i can correct?

    I have the same problem. Did you get an answer from anyone?

  • Slideshow captions appear to have boxes around them when viewed on mobile devices

    Hi... I searched for this problem but couldn't find a reference - appologies if I didn't quite use the right search terms and it's already been answered.
    I am having problems with a basic slideshow widget - when viewed on a PC (iMac in this instance) the image captions, counter and navigation buttons do NOT have any visible borders (I haven't stroked or filled the container boxes, other than the nav buttons). However, view the same slideshow on an iPad, or iPhone and there appears to be boxes around the caption, counter and nav buttons. I would prefer there to be no visible box outlines.
    The problem page can be viewed here (remember, fine on a PC, not fine on a mobile device)
    http://mikehiggs.co.uk/musesite/case-studies.html
    There are two slide shows on the page as I tried two different widgets - both have the same problem.
    The odd thing is, I used the same method on the Home Page slideshow at the top of the page and this is working fine.
    If anyone can shed any light on this 'problem' I'd very much appreciate it - I have tried everything I know at this stage.
    Thanks in advance of any help.
    Addendum...
    If I change the slideshow transitions from 'horizontal' to 'fade' the problem goes away. But I would prefer the slideshow to slide.
    Just thought this extra info may help diagnose the problem.

  • TS2972 when viewing photo albums thru apple tv photos show in random order. How do I get to show in sequence ?

    When viewing photo albums photos show in random. How do you get photos to show in sequecne?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Before going into any depth about this have you checked that you aren't simply using the shuffle option in the slideshow settings.

    Hi. I am having an issue with music on my IPod. It would probably be easier to explain my specific issue: I have songs by Band of Horses from Cease to Begin. When viewing my albums through cover flow, it shows Cease To Begin as two separate albums, one with only Islands on the Coast, and the other having Islands on the Coast with 3 other songs. If I delete the album with only one song from my IPod, it deletes the song from the other "album" as well. If I go to "All Songs" by Band of Horses, it only shows one Islands on the Coast, so it is not a duplicate issue. Also, in Itunes, it only shows one album. I just recently updated to iOS5 on my 4th Gen IPod Touch, if that helps.
