Contributor sroland on F-Spot Photo Manager

F-Spot is a great program but it lacks the option of play a background song  
Written by sroland the 25 Aug 09 at 19:35. Not an idea
When watching a slide show, it would be great to add the "play background song" option... the fading transition effect is well done and it only lacks this song option.... other thing is that I didn't find how to change time between photos... i found the default too large.

Solution #1: add the song option to F-Spot
Written by sroland the 25 Aug 09 at 19:35.
developers should add this option to get F-Spot the best Photo manager ever... I thing F-Spot is one of the great apps in Ubuntu and should become a really "slideshow center" for us to show photos to people...

Solution #2: Add plugins to rhythmbox and F-spot
Written by Ssdg the 27 Aug 09 at 14:07.
By addind two plugins, one in f-Spot to notify of the slideshow's start and one in Rhythmbox to start playing when notified, the problem will be solved and we can use both in compination with other programs.
Maybe we can add a few "configuration options" (exchanged via the dialog protocol) like in f-spot, we'll see the availlable playlists and choose one of them to use with the slideshow.

This could use D-Bus or any other inter application dialog protocol.

PS: for example, but this solution isn't about implementing theses examples:
gnome games could play certain playlists when you win or loose
Power manager could provide a way for f-spot to ask for a certain screen brightness

Solution #3: replace F-spot with GNOME Photo Collector and add SMILE
Written by xernos the 15 Sep 09 at 16:05.
I don't use F-spot so you can remove from standard installation - I suggest replace F-spot with GNOME Photo Collector (http://sourceforge.net/projects/gpc/) and for creating simple sideshow with music i more prefer SMILE (http://smile.tuxfamily.org/) an Avidemux or mmencoder.
