I tried to install it and have some problems.

1. The web interface just provides the default album art image and no
previews, I'm pretty sure I had previews yesterday when I tried it on
my development machine. When I used it on my development machine I just
pointed it to my music folder with small album covers, now when I
installed it on the real server I pointed it to my main photo library
with more and larger images.

2. When I click on an image in the web interface it just produces a
screen of text, it looks like the content-type is set to "text/html".
The file extension was .JPG (with capital letters), could that be the
cause ?

3. The web interface have problems in the "Default" skin where I don't
get any vertical scrollbar so when there are more folders than what the
screen can show I can't scroll to the bottom half. It works in the
"Classic" skin but not in the "Default" skin. I think I've seen this
problem in some of my own plugins earler but I don't remember exactly
what solved it.

4. I had to restart the Radio for the "Extras" menu to appear, I'm not
sure if this is related to the plugin or if it's some bug in the
standard software.

5. On the Radio it works great for my old Olympus pictures (with size
around 500kb) but for my larger pictures taken more recently (with size
around 2Mb) it only shows the default album art. It can read and show
the exif information, so the problem is not that it doesn't have access
to the file. 

I looked in the server.log but didn't see any errors. I can try to
enable debug logging on the plugin if you think it will show something
useful.

Even though I had some initial problems it feels like this is going to
be great, especially on the Touch with its color screen in the middle
of the living room.

Some enhancement ideas:
- It would be great to be able to import a list of images to include in
a specific favorite list. I've already tagged my images so I know what
images I like to have in a favorites list but I'd like to import that
list instead of going through the library and finding the correct
images through the SBS web interface. As an alternative, have a context
menus on a folder that makes it possible to set all images in that
folder as favorites.

- It would be great to have an option to play a slide show of all
images found in the folder I've specified.
