I need to create a slideshow of still shots that can loop endlessly 24/7 on a flatscreen tv in my companies lobby.
What's the best way to do this? Hardware? Software?
Gracias QBN amigos.

Just to up the level of difficulty, the only hardware I have available to run this is a 5 year old PC laptop... GO!

Adobe Flash, export to .exe as a kiosk application.

What type of TV are you using. If you get any modern LCD it should have a USB port / Slideshow capabilities built in. Just load a USB key with images and set it to play / loop. Done. We're doing this currently with Samsung 550 Series LCD:

This is actually a great program for creating slideshows.

- Teaching the front desk chick to use dynamic flash ain't gonna happen.BK
- teaching her to update images in a folder? seems easy enough.dbloc
- it's just a simple drag and drop. If she can't do that, she needs to go learn how to use a computer.dbloc
