Description Mattias Eriksson 2002-11-25 17:20:19 UTC 
It would be nice to be able to view the slideshow on the TV-set. There is a
nice program called nvtvd that provides a (simple?) way to do this. It's
used by xine and it works just great.

Comment 1 Mattias Eriksson 2007-07-22 12:33:36 UTC 
nv-tv-out is not maintaned anymore I think...
Comment 2 Bastien Nocera 2007-07-23 07:46:14 UTC 
Reopening, it should use XRandR 1.2 instead!

Here is a related Fedora bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=510090

From the text:

When I start gthumb in a scenario where there is more than one monitor, it
would be nice if it tried to be smart about showing the slideshow on the
'other' monitor, even if it can't figure out which of the monitors is a
projector. At worst, it could ask me which monitor to show it on.

gthumb handles this a bit worse than evince, since it insists on showing the
slideshow on my laptop panel, even if I manually move the gthumb window to the
projector.
Comment 4 Michael Chudobiak 2015-12-18 18:21:02 UTC 
Marking as obsolete, as this was reported for an unspecified / now-unsupported version and no recent activity has occurred. 

Please feel free to reopen this bug report if it describes a bug that still occurs with a current version of gThumb.
