Users should add ideas and feature requests to this list.
If you have a feature request and you see it's already in the ToDo list add it any way, this way the developer(s) will know which features should be prioritized. Add your name and a link to your wiki-profile page to the request, that way it's easy for the developer(s) to contact you if something is unclear.

LGE Spee - Change the syntax of slideshow file
Change to a more standardized, more flexible and more human-readable syntax. I think XML would be a real good candidate for this purpose.
LGE Spee - Parse the grammar of the input file at the beginning of the run. It is frustrating to wait twenty minutes to see the script fail because you have mistyped a semi-colon... Arek' Fu
- Lay a picture over the slideshow Use cases:
- Easier custom menu creation (overlay static menu part over slideshow video)
- HUD so video can appear from inside race car, etc
- Opaque watermark (as opposed to a translucent one that is blended with the picture)
- Automatic time-per-picture based on mp3/ac3 song length (song length / number of pics)
- Controlling the volume of a track
- Move the config file into ~/.config/dvd-slideshow/dvd-slideshowrc
- more than 1 possilbe langauge for subtitles
ToDo
- Move the examples from /opt to /usr/share, that will be more appropriate.

dir2slideshow
- Extract exif comment and use as sub-title text. Command to do this: extract -g -p comment somefile.jpg
- Add '* )' at the end of the case statement that parses the input params. As it is now, if an invalid param is supplied, it produces the incorrect error message "Input directory is not a real directory:". It should produce an error such as "invalid param" or display the generic help.
dvd-menu
- setup menu with subtitle selection and/or credits, audio setup, etc.
- more text control: font size and color, placement, etc.
- variable non-button text on the main menu.
Examples
- Examples using other GUIs?
- text-file input for menus
- allow sub-menus.
Other
