For slideshow view I am looking for 3 related enhancements.  I have a lot
of pictures to sift through and 1 second flip time
will take forever...

I would like to see some option toggle boxes for the following ideas:

During slideshow,
1) don't flip until previous picture completely displays
2) don't flip until next image has finished preloading
3) once the current image displays, specify the amount of time (in
milliseconds) the current image should be displayed before being allowed
to flip to next image

Probably there would need to be a toggle box to select between
milliseconds and seconds.


The current issues is that I can now specify the slideshow speed in
milliseconds; however, this method isn't perfect for me,
if I set it too fast then the images don't display completely.  Setting it
slow enough for all my images to display completely causes a large time
waste across all the other pictures where I don't need such a slow speed. 
If I could start the slideshow counter to just after the image completely
displays, that would be a great alternative until someone (maybe me) can
implement the above 3 RFE's.

Thanks for any help anyone can offer in attempting to speed up the
slideshow with complete images.

Thanks in Advance,
Richard Black
