PictureFlow provides a visualisation of your albums with their associated cover art. It is
possible to start playback of the selected album from PictureFlow. Playback will start
from the selected track. The PictureFlow plugin will continue to run while your tracks
are played.
Requirements
PictureFlow uses both the album art (see section
(page
)) and database (see
section
(page
)) features of Rockbox. It is therefore important that these are
working correctly before attempting to use PictureFlow. In addition, there are some
other points of which to be aware:
•
PictureFlow will accept album art larger than the dimensions of the screen, but
the larger the dimensions, the longer they will take to scale.
