From: Twayne on 17 Jan 2010 21:50 Don't you need the .ini file and icon for folders where you want to use filmstrip mode? I was just looking at my own setup and all the ones where I have filmstrip available have the .ini file and pictures icon.

Images only can be in the Folder to View as a Filmstrip! If there a mp3, htm, txt, wav, ex..ex.., file types in the Folder it will not view as Filmstrip. But as a Thumbnails you can View all file types! For in Thumbnails it will make a Thumbnails images of your Pictures to view! For Filmstrip is a images Display Brower only viewer!!!!!!!!!
