Hallo,

does anyone know a free program to display pictures and movies as a
presentation
(mplayer and vlc don't seem to do that)

eg ideally as simple as:
$ programX -r media/
would show them in a random order

where /media
has a tree subdir structure containing movies and pictures
Most of the picture viewers installed with a desktop environment will
do this <ie> shotwell viewer, image viewr, ristretto, gthumb.
Most such image-viewing programs do seem to support a timed-progression
"slideshow" mode, yes.

None of the ones I've looked at support playing a video as a "slide" of
the slideshow, though - and the original question asked for a way to
display "pictures and movies" in that style.

Do any of the ones you cited support mixing playback of videos in
between display of the images in such a slideshow?
---end quoted text---

Shotwell image viewer does - don't know about the others and don't have
time to try right now. Surely the OP can spend some time and find out.
;)


Gwenview does all that you want
