David, have your recent patches for the slideshow plugin fixed this already?
Comment 2 David Redondo 2019-03-17 17:38:12 UTC 
They shouldn't. I didn't touch the code dealing with the actual slideshow - just added the preview.
Comment 3 David Redondo 2019-03-17 18:58:31 UTC 
Unfortunately I can't reproduce this behavior following the steps described above. If I delete all images in the folder added to slideshow and copy another one into it is immediately shown.
Comment 4 Nate Graham 2019-03-31 16:09:30 UTC 
Neither can I. :(

Is anything special or unusual about the paths in question?
