When you view the slide show the timeline between pictures is about 6
seconds. How do you change the timeline from 6 seconds up to 10 or 20
or 30 seconds between pictures. I do not want to use "Screen Saver"
or "Movie Maker", only by selecting "my pictures" and using the "view
as a slide show" is all I want to use. With "Screen Saver" I can
adjust the timeline between pictures. Why not while using "My
Pictures" folder and "view as a slide show?
================================
Lots of info...
Simple solution....is that you can pause the
slide show by pressing your spacebar and
then advance - reverse your image display
with your arrow keys.
Or...download and install TweakUI. It has
an option that allows the user to adjust the
slideshow timeout.
Just open TweakUI and go to...Explorer /
Slide Show...(1000 = 1 second)

Also...If you are not running SP1....or later...
here's another option:
This requires a registry edit........
I would suggest that you carefully read the
following article first before proceeding:

====================================
There's a script you can download from the
following site that will increase the timeout
to 10 seconds...scroll down to #81.

Also, the following info was previously posted
by David Shiflet:
===========================================
The value of the number is represented in milliseconds
between image changes:
1000 = 1 second, 5000 = 5 seconds, 10000=10 seconds,
etc. To modify my script change the time accordingly.
In order to change the slideshow timing, open regedit
and go to the following key.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellImageView]
Create a DWORD named "Timeout", with the value the
number of millseconds between image changes (1000
(Dec) = 1 second, 5000 = 5 seconds)
Note that the time of actually changing the image is not
included, so 1000 =1 second + time to decode the image
===========================================
If you open the script from Kelly's site in notepad, you
should be able to use David's instructions to change
the timeout to anything you require.
Good luck....
