It's one or the other.
Workaround. Create videos that have those pictures in the video. There are so many slideshow makers today (apps) that I can't list them.
But yes, what you see is what I see.
My company has several Samsung UN40H5003AFXZA televisions and wants to display slideshows using the built in TV app with pictures and videos. I have tried several times to get it to play correctly, but when I start it, it simply plays all the pictures and skips over the videos. Now when I select one of the videos and start the slideshow, it plays all the videos but skips the pictures. I have the media set to All but still no joy. Any suggestions?
