Hello all,
I am trying to create a picture slideshow on Kodi with my 10k library of pictures. I recently purchased a Seagate Central 4tb and am using it as a NAS. I also purchased a Raspberry Pi 3. I downloaded the osmc os on the RP3 and went into Pictures and was able to find and add my NFS in the SMB category. I started a recursive slideshow and everything went pretty smoothly except for the fact that 1/3 of the pictures were pixelated. I read up online that there was a problem with the RAM management on Kodi with the RP3. I had an extra computer laying around, so I figured I would give that a try to see if the underlying problem was found within Kodi's software, or the RP3. Again, I went through the same setup process and started the slideshow. Once more, about 1/3 of the pictures came up pixelated. I knew at that point that there wasn't a problem with RAM management as the computer I used the second time has 4gb of DDR3 Ram installed. I also know that all of the pictures I'm using are all good quality and none of them are actually this pixelated when viewing them on a regular computer without Kodi. I should also note that all of my pictures are in .jpg format. I'm a bit stuck and I cant find anything else online about this. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Reece
