Slideshow Mode

Slideshow mode fills a screen with photos from the event as they come in, newest first. It's built for a TV. This funcion connects to the cloud and requires internet.

Starting a slideshow

Open up a broswer on the TV or device.
Type in the Gallery Code, ABCEFG
Press F11 to put the browser in full screen.
Press SPACE to pause

New photos appear automatically — leave it running all night. The slideshow default is single shots, if you would like to display strips, you need to change the url manually

Example: https://app.imgbooth.photos/slideshow/?booth=ABCEFG&strips=1

What to run it on

Device	Works well?	Notes
Laptop with HDMI	Yes	Simplest option. Disable sleep and screensaver first.
Smart TV browser	Sometimes	Varies by TV. Test at home before an event.
Streaming stick	Yes	Cast the browser tab from a laptop.
Tablet	Yes	Good for a small display on the booth itself.

<WRAP important> Turn off sleep, screensaver, and automatic updates on whatever device drives the screen. A slideshow that goes black because the computer when to sleep is the most common slideshow issue. </WRAP>

Before doors open

Run the slideshow for a few minutes on the actual screen you'll use
Check the photos aren't cropped awkwardly on that screen's aspect ratio
Confirm the device has proper internet connection. We suggest using your own hotspot
