I have just brought a Motorola Xoom and trying to figure out the best way to browse photo's based on a network share.
The closest I have got is Twonky however client won't install on the Xoom and can't browse as such. More select and download for local viewing.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks
Give ES File Explorer a shot - it has both thumbnail preview and gallery browsing for pictures in its LAN view. Little slower than I'd like, but it's a nice all-in-one solution.
Floating image is also nice.

Floating image does not work of a local network device. SMB, UPNP etc.
ES file explorer is great however missing a few features
Full screen
Swipe picture changing (Not arrows)
Image zooming
Speed - Not quite fast enough.10+ secs between pics.

I'm looking for an app that will let me browse pictures on a network share
From what I can tell general file explorer's don't let you swipe through pictures in full screen
I know about UPnP apps, but they seem to be a bit slow so would prefer to bypass UPnP
Thanks in advance
I use ES File explorer to browse through the photos stored on my ubuntu server either from my local network or remotely. Works great and photos show up as if they were on TF.
I am curious if any of you use your TF for doing presentations for clients at wherever you work.
I have a couple of apple guys in the office and with their Ipads they have downloaded a program called "Portfolio" which I have not found in our Android market.
The basic functionality is that it lets them break up galleries into folders, so they create a folder for each product. Then for the client they can just click on the folder for the product they want to see and can show them photos/pdfs/etc.
Is there any way we can do that with either the standard gallery or another gallery?
U don't need special app to makes different folders for your different clients. The stock gallery already supports this.
Go to your SD card via any file manager, create a folder "client". Then create more folders within "client", name each of these folders with your clients name. Then drop the related files in their respective folders.
The stock gallery should pic this up and display your client's name in folders.
Apart from that, u can try Quickpic as an alternative gallery, its more flexible compared to stock gallery.

+1 for QuickPic.
Also recommending QuickPic.
If we could only have Quickpic with the smoothness of JustPictures ^^
Thanks for the tips!
Quick question, if we have some marketing videos that I would also want to use that are either in Quicktime or WMV will they work on the transformer or do I need to convert them to something else? If so, what is the best for conversion (both time, ease, and quality)?

Yes for WMV as long as the resolution isn't too high (1080p isn't smooth with this format, I've tried. 720p or lower is fine for me), but you'll need to convert Quicktime into a more useable format such as MP4. You can use Handbrake to convert it, it's free so nothing to lose in trying it out.
Photo Share Web Server turns your portable device to a http server allowing you to share your photos wirelessly to any browser (ex. Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer ...), also giving you the ability to download the photos without the hassle of using your USB cable. Simply press the "Power" button to start the server, and type the URL address given by the app. The website is wrapped around a very attractive gallery allowing the user to simply browse the contents. Note while this app does allow to be used on 3G, not all carriers support this. So it's recommended to use WIFI.
Note: To keep this app free I have implemented Ads and an Ad Icon which can be freely removed.
Features:
*Can be accessed from any browser.
*Clicking on the photo will give you Full Resolution.
*Full screen browsing experience.
*Attractive slideshow gallery.

Hi,
am using comicrack atm which looks great and fits images nicely, plus has a load of customiztion options. Navigation is a bit tricky though unless I organise all my books via comicrack pc app which is a massive chore.
So I was just wondering if anyone has any other recommendations for readers and for adding books wirelessly.
Thanks
i use Comicrack. I tried PerfectViewer and Komic, but i prefer Comicrack better. How is navigation tricky? I have a folder with all my comics in it. If its a series, i create a folder within the comics folder for that series. Comicrack display my comics by folder with no problems. I havent had any issues with this app. Plus, you can use two different folders for scanning for comics.

My setup is the same folder wise, but the folder tree view is very minimal and you can't always see the full path easily.
That being side I think I can tolerate it whaat with the great border removal and cover view browser.
I guess the skip pages, ads, letters etc, only work if you scrape the comic info....not got it to work yet anyways
I use perfect viewer. Not found anything better and it doubles as the best pdf viewer as well (no lag)
Personally I like Perfectviewer.
Another for Perfect Viewer, great app!

Just as others, I use perfect viewer. I use AirDroid to transfer file wirelessly from my PC. I have Comics folder on my microSD and that is where I set up my library path to on Perfect viewer. It works fast, stable. The other feature I like it on is automatic double page conversion to single page.
I use PerfectViewer.
I'm looking for a photo viewer app for my Asus Memo Pad 10 which can quickly browse photo folders on a NAS/Windows network share. I've tried Photoframe and ES File Explorer but both are quite slow to scroll through slides over the network. Is there an app which is optimised for network access?? (and works well on a 10" tablet)
