friendlier radio selection in slideshow
Provide recent radio selector within slideshow. It is not my experience that it auto-returns from radio selection to slides and it's terribly modal as is. Radio selection should be more intuitive at any rate, with recent stations at the top of the options.

Automatically accept photos and display them without the menu/timer
Automatically accept photos and display them without the menu/timer, maybe display a star or email icon to indicate they are new.
When I have automatic enabled, I hear the ding of a new photo, but who knows when it will display. Automatic and show throws up the menu and blocks half of the new picture.

Have the Clock and Calendar hide in the background while weather pages are displayed.
I currently use the clock and calendar in the top right corner of the screen, however when any of the weather pages are displayed the clock and calendar cover and obscure the information on those pages in the upper right corner. It would be nice to have the clock and calendar disappear when the weather pages are displayed similar to how it disappears when the Daily Information page is displayed

Plan for extra utilization of your server resources around holidays - e.g. Christmas...
It is reasonable to expect significantly increased traffic around holidays, especially Christmas. Lease extra capacity from providers, like Amazon.

Please remove the "bounce effect" when manually going thru pictures; it's really annoying!
The bounce effect is nice the first 2 or 3 times it is used; after that, it just gets annoying; and it is even more so for older people that are not used to this kind of glitz....and of course, older folks are the majority of users.
The bounce effect also seems to slow down the ability to progress rapidly through pictures. If you must keep this effect, make it optional.
This brings up another request. It would be nice to be able to manually move quickly through an album. Moving one picture at a time is tedious (especially with…
1 voteHello,
Could you contact us by email at ’ info@pix-star.com ’ we will give you an updated version without this bounce effect.
To navigate more quickly inside an album that is playing in the slide show use the THUMBNAIL this has been design for quick navigation.
When slideshow is playing, press the MENU button then choose the 3rd button from bottom the thumbnail will open then navigate quickly to the picture you want to show and press OK/Play to play it back in slide show.

Connecting the frame to a NAS within the local network via SMB
Dears,
it would be nice to connect the Frame via the smb-protokoll to a NAS / Windows-Share and Play all found Pictures stored in all/different Folders.
If the NAS/share is updated with new files, the Frame will Play them in the future (cycling or random) without updating the Frame itselve.
Sascha12 votesHello,
for this we suggest to use UPnP/DLNA instead of Samba as it is easier to use and more suitable for this use case.

Share account photos across multiple accounts
Is there any way to use the configuration from my first frame to be used for multiple frames when linked together? It looks like just emailed photos and new shared albums are linked but I can't link an existing album.

Improve bezel quality
This frame is premium price due to its high level of functionality. However, the quality of the bezel is not great and doesn't give a quality feel. I would much happier with the product (even if it cost an additional £50) if the device had a better quality frame (high gloss black for example) and had a bit more substance to its weight.

Ability to select local folder slideshow from website
I see how I am able to select a slideshow to display all pictures (including local, web albums, etc) or only a certain web album. However, I cannot see a means of selecting to display only pictures from the inbox or another local folder from the website. As someone who is managing a frame for his parents who live in another country, this would be useful, for example, for displaying birthday or other greetings and ensuring they are noticed by the recipients.
If I haven't just overlooked this, I think it would be a very useful addition without a great…
