Display Outlook Calendar
I would like to see my personal Daily Outlook Calendar every 10 photos or so. Outlook resides on my desktop computer where I am linking via Wi-Fi/DLNA to my photos in the Pictures folder in Windows 7.

I have noted that there is a lag in the syncing of the pictures with the caption. Can that be matched up?
Perhaps there is a way to sync this process every once in a while as it lags

The last time it was online
Hello,
I do not think there is a feature on this, if there is please let me know.
It will be good if it records the last time and date is was online. Even better if it shows uptime (Linux) history.
The reason is then we can check if the machine was ever online. My
mother-in-law will always off it and it remain offline for long periods. I have no idea how often it is used, or even if the reminders are utilized.This method can help to clarify things a little ... Thanks!

Bulk download: include Sender as a sub-folder in the ZIP folder
When I bulk download pictures from the web-site, group pictures by the senders' e-mail addresses (as subfolders in the .ZIP file). That will allow me to make a full backup and not lose the sender information.

Sharing albums has a limitation
I shared an album on my 12" frame to a 15" frame I bought for my granddaughter. Smart Fill doesn't work on this album. The pics don't fill the screen on the 15" frame. The display is smaller, i.e., the pics display at the 12" frame size. It would be an improvement if Smart Fill worked on both uploaded photos and shared album photos.
1 voteThis is a technical limitation when you share pictures form a small frame to a bigger one there is no solution to this.

pix star in Spain
Hello my daughter in NJ, USA, did a good bit of research before choosing your Pix-Star digital photo frame. This summer we saw it in action and loved it. I would like to give one to my husband for his birthday next 6 October. We live in Madrid, Spain, and as soon as we got back from the US I looked it up and saw it in Amazon.es. However today I am trying to order it in time to get it set up for his birthday and now Amazon.es says they don't have it. I am desperate since my daughters…

Allow expansion of internal memory with SD card as if it was part of main memory.
Allow expansion by SD or USB to allow more photos to be synced over the air. If you can somehow allow both drives to be used as if internal it addresses loads of other issues - maybe further out.

Go back a picture or two
So you are wandering by the picture frame, you see a picture out of the corner of your eye. Then it disappears and goes onto the next one, before you can find the remote, another one comes and goes, You want to go back a picture or two or three to see the ones that just popped up. But you are in shuffle/random mode. Can you still go back a couple? What if there were a sensor on the frame that was just a back button. touch the left of the frame and is goes back a pic at a…

Slide Show Preview
It would be a fabulous idea to allow an option from the web or the ability to share an HTML link (with the Frame slide show) on it. We have an entire family feeding pictures to the frame. It would be neat if they could see that the picture is a) already there or b) how it looks on the frame.

Connect to shoebox
Shoebox is my favorite image storage app and I would purchase a few frames if I could connect to it. Thanks!
1 voteHello,
We’ve checked carefully Shoebox web site and it appears that this provider does NOT provide any API (interface) for 3rd parties to access pictures or media stored inside shoebox users’s account as other similar web site do.
So it is currently totally impossible to anyone (not only pix-star) to integrate their service.

A play all setting
I want to send this to my Grandmother and have it play everything, google+ photos, photos emailed to her, other online photos. I can see how to set each up, but it would be great if it would play everything without any interaction from her
1 voteHello,
Of course this feature already exists, it’s actually the slide show by default it plays EVERYTHING.
it’s also the slide show you launch by clicking on the 1st line of the main menu which is named:
PLAY ALL THE FRAME’S PICTURES
this will play EVERYTHING together as you wish.

How to add radio stations to "Radio Playlists"? I only have 17 stations on frame and most don't work.
There is not much information on how to use the web radio function in the knowledge base nor the Radio Playlist or custom web radio functions. I just set-up my frame and only see 17 stations of which most are not functional.

Automatically delete older photos from web-feed when upper limit reached
I have my flickr photos import to Pix-star as a web-album. However, the album has recently stopped updating, as I have over 3000 Flickr photos.
Ideally, it would be nice not to have that 3000 photo cap. Alternatively, I'd like the option to be able to boot out the older photos when new ones are added, so that the feed continues to update.
