Digikam slideshow on a usb stick

[pierpiotr]

Hello list members

Is there a way to install a slide show on a USB stick ? The pix would be stored there in various folders...

[Boudewijn]

Could you elaborate on your goal and infrastructure? One way to achieve your goal is to take a live Linux-distro with a writable partition on the USB-stick. Place DK5.3 and the photos there, and you are done. It may be more heavy handed than necessary.

Best regards,

Thanks for these answers.

I would like to copy CDs of rollfilms that I had done before I invested in my 1st digital camera. I would like to arrange the pix like in the folders we have in Digikam and use a slideshow, but not edit them once copied. I would have 2 copies on 2 USB sticks of the CDs because these laters proove not durable/dependable.

I thought first of using tiddlywiki but it may be time consuming to copy there and build it right.

The linux on a stick + digikam would take some space. I calculated that I need ~20Go to save my pix.

ffdiaporama looks like a good alternative. Building simple slideshows per CD and saving the pix in a same folder...
