Hi, I'm looking for an app able to create a slideshow using images files (photos). I've tried with Imagination and ffDiaporama, but they lack the ability of sorting images by date. It's a pain because, images are imported and it's difficult sort them. Does anyone know an app with gui that has such a ability?
Thanks in advance!

I think this is possible with imagination (DISCLAIMER: I'm the packager for it).
You just need to sort your pictures by date in the file chooser window when you do the import.
I tried this with a small number of pictures and it seemed to work.

Thanks! You're right. I love Imagination because it's really easy and useful! I've written a little review in spanish some time ago :)

It could be nice that has the feature making a loop on the audio file when it's too short or fading when it's too large...

Well, I think the next version is supposed to fade out the music if it's too long so perhaps it will also have that option. Either way I would email the author to see if he's interested in implementing the feature. Of course you could always figure out the length of your slide show and then use something like Audacity to loop the audio yourself and apply any other audio effects you want.

Hello, I am interested too.
From the FAQ
- Why playing mp3 files on Fedora doesn't work? Because Fedora supplies sox without support for mp3 (legal reasons). You'll need to build sox with mp3 support if you wish to preview mp3 files on Fedora.
There's a thread how to rebuild SoX http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=250465
There is a RPM fusion package, but only in rawhide devel: https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1702 http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/development/source/SRPMS/repoview...
I read your name on the bugzilla report. Do you have the info when (if) a binary for F15 will be available anytime soon?
Thank you.

Not sure yet. I'm looking into what's necessary to create a companion package at RPM Fusion since we have a policy against duplicating packages that already exist in Fedora.

If you can't split it out into a plugin, shipping an uncrippled "imagination-freeworld" package in RPMFusion should be okay. That's what audacity and several other packages have to do.

The problem is not with imagination itself, but in sox which imagination uses for audio. The version in Fedora is built with MP3 support disabled for obvious reasons. I've already created a sox-freeworld package and tested it locally and it seems to work. I'm working out the details now since I'm going to try and support AMB (Adaptive Multi-Rate) audio as well but that will have to go in the non-free repository in RPM Fusion.
I'll post a link to the review request(s) when they're ready.

That's great, thanks.
Ok, I finally had time to submit them:
sox-plugins-freeworld (MP3 support) https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2205
sox-plugins-nonfree (Adaptive Multi-Rate, AMR support) https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2206
