Tried doing a slideshow of about 70 selected images, and it stalled on building preview on slide 1, and would not move on and would no let me cancel it either.  I have just moved to classic and it seems pretty buggy

Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out. I’ll need a little more information so that I can help you with this.

What version of Lightroom classic & the operating system are you working on? Does this happen with all images/collections, or do any specific images behave similarly?

 

I have a few suggestions you can try.

 

  • Creating the slideshow from a collection with any missing images might not work. Go to Library Module > Library Menu on top > Select Find all missing photos.
  • Use images with uniform dimensions (only landscapes or portraits) in the slideshow as a test.
  • Go to Lightroom Classic > Edit > Preferences > Performance > Use Graphics Processor > Set it to Off if it is on Custom or Auto.

 

Let me know how it goes from here,

Thanks!
