Diego T. Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Hey y'all!!! I would like to know your suggestions. I have a folder with pictures: I would like to have 2 separate slideshows running at the same time from that folder. The pictures in that folder in the slideshows preferably will be displayed at random with a X time frame between each pic. Both slideshows should be full screen (side by side). Yes, is porn. IrfanView allows me to do slidewhows but only 1 per screen, and the auto view option only works in order not in random. You have any settings or suggestions? Thanks!!

Edion Gecos Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Whatever the contents of the slideshow is your thing, bro - as far as I am concerned it can be landscapes or spacecrafts or anything else; no need to go into details. But to simultaneously run two instances of IrfanView with two slideshows, go to the menu "Options -- Properties/Settings -- Start/Exit options" and un-check the box for "Only 1 instance of IrfanView is active". Then start a second instance. For each instance of IrfanView in the Slideshow window: - in the Slide advancement" section click the radio button for "Random after xxx seconds" and insert the desired time - click the radio button for "Play in Windows mode" (instead of full screen mode) in the "Play mode" section of that window - un-check "centered" - set the number in the "Width" field for both slideshows to half your monitor/screen width - and for the second show put that same number of half the screen as the starting position in the "x-pos" field. Now you have two random slideshows side-by-side covering the full screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This can (only) be done using two portable versions 👇 Edit: Under "Options -> Properties/Settings... -> Full screen / Slideshow" you can change the "Text font size" to 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know it won't "continue to work" as two slideshows side by side, because those two instances share the same .ini file! So, it's better to use two portable versions each having different .ini file 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for mirrors, at least the "PortableAppZ" ones in the following post by @moszter are still active, I just tested them: https://www.nsaneforums.com/topic/360310-irfanview-454/?do=findComment&comment=1536180 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
