xv -wait n files* does 'slide-show' with n seconds waiting before displaying next image. after I upgraded to 2006.1 (and gcc-4.1) this feature stopped working. xv -wait 0 files* works - displaying images in rapid succession. xv -wait 1 files* works - displaying images with 1 second delay. but anything bigger that 1 (in seconds to wait) causes to display first image and not to switch to next ones. and I think also xv program itself is somehow delayed - every action (like manually jumping to next image) is slower than usual.
It WFM here with media-gfx/xv-3.10a-r12, please give the exact commandline you are using, and the aproximate number of images you are displaying. With this: $ ls cimg0001.jpg cimg0005.jpg cimg0009.jpg cimg0013.jpg cimg0002.jpg cimg0006.jpg cimg0010.jpg cimg0015.jpg cimg0003.jpg cimg0007.jpg cimg0011.jpg cimg0016.jpg cimg0004.jpg cimg0008.jpg cimg0012.jpg cimg0017.jpg $ xv -wait 2 * xv behaves as expected.
Yes xv is media-gfx/xv-3.10a-r12. Any number of images: $ ls calderaOMons_marsexpress_lg.jpg planetary-nebula.jpg crabmosaic_hst_f.jpg saturn.jpg dr21b_spitzer_big.jpg saturn-mimas.png earth.jpg saturn-PIA01464.jpg jupiterPIA02873.jpg sedna-PIA05566.jpg m39.jpg solar-eclipse-corona.jpg marsheart_mgs_big.gif spiral-galaxy-m101.jpg milky-way.jpg supernova-remnant.jpg ngc1818.jpg tarantula_ctio_big.jpg NGC-2440-Cocoon-of-a-New-White-Dwarf.jpg whirlpool-galaxy.jpg $ xv -wait 1 * is ok $ xv -wait 2 * would not show second or any other image It could be something rotten on my system but I don't know what. This appeared after upgrade to 2006.1 and sys-devel/gcc-4.1.1, sys-libs/glibc-2.4-r3. I've rebuild system and world - as suggested in gcc upgrade guide.
*** Bug 164156 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Created attachment 117204 [details, diff] A fix so that "-wait x" where x>1 works "man 2 times" states that CLK_TCK is obsolete. sysconf(_SC_CLK_TCK) should be used.
Indeed, the code used to get 1000000L from CLK_TCK, whereas the real number of ticks per second as reported by sysconf(_SC_CLK_TCK), on my system, is 100, causing the issue. The patch provided definitely addresses the issue, and I've applied a very similar patch (thanks for the submission!). I've also changed a few small things like checking for potential negative delays (I've seen them) and avoiding them by not using ">=" (but ">" instead) when checking whether to use sleep or Timer. However, due to uncertainty (as commented in the code) about what might happen on a rollover and non-POSIX use of times(NULL) (even though Linux handles it), I wonder if xv should attempt to use ticks. I have an email out to upstream, and we'll see what he says. For now, I will check in the fix.
