newt:
Not knowing what pictureflow was I checked it out and I am amazed, this looks exactly like what they got in the iphone. :D only thing is that it doesn't play the desired album :(

Is there any chance for this to become the default album viewer in Database?

A bug, when you have all 100x100 and one image that is smaller it draws the image/bottomeffect on the top which basically looks weird. Can anyone change it to fit at the bottom so I can keep thinking that blackness is a table? :)

AlexP:
I doubt it will become the default album view (this is just opinion).  Pictureflow uses the main buffer to store all the images, so it usually has to stop playback to do this unless either the buffered songs or the pictures are very small (as I understand it), so using it to navigate would require everytime you go to the database to browse music stopping.

However, I don't know if it would be possible to use it as it is currently but select album, perhaps someone with a better technical grasp of the plugin interface can answer that one.

karashata:
I sat in the IRC channel while discussion was going on about the new plugin, the people working on it (currently the guy who ported the original code and Nico_P) would like it to play the selected album at some point, but there's no chance it's going to be put into the core code and used as a default viewer.  At least, that's where things sat last I heard about it.

baobab68:
Not sure if it works as I've not tried it but I've read about the possibility of running a ROCK file automatically on startup of the player, so it might be possible to go down that path... "autorock.rock", from memory...

...is all I found, but it is certainly possible with a custom build.
