question about new annoying HTC ONE GALLERY 'feature'

[walterkurtz]

since the last update (5.14.531.1), the picture galleries have an added feature. when i select a gallery, a slideshow immediately begins playing at the top. it consists of photos within the gallery and lord knows what music. is there any way to disable this feature? permanently??

thank you!!!

Dido this is one feature I have no use for. I keep accidentally launching it when looking for one pic.

yes particularly annoying when your volume is up and you're standing on a movie set!

Open gallery, hit menu dots upper right of screen, select delete content. Next time you open gallery, there is no content in the video so it doesn't play.

i tried that, as well as deleting the content using the little paper and pencil icon on the bottom right of the 'annoying video feature (AVF)' screen. when you reopen a gallery, there's a video again. i think it's restoring content on it's own. HELP!

Just tap the 1st pic or, any pic and it'll be a full screen display. Then you can swipe through em.

i wish it were that easy. i have 800 pics in one of my galleries. swiping that much makes my eyes hurt. and this is a ridiculous feature to add without the option to remove...

HTC updated Gallery already, doesn't help annoying video, though
HTC today pushed out a small update to its gallery application for all devices running Sense 6.0. The app adds a toolbar for adjusting the strength of the blur tool in UFocus, which lets users dial in the exact effect they want. The app also expands the availability of the Dimension Plus and Pan 360 viewers to all Sense 6.0 phones. HTC Gallery is free to download from the Google Play Store.

downloaded HTC GALLERY from the play store. absolutely no discernible difference. i have learned, however, that if you disable the speaker icon on the bottom left of any 'video album', it disables the sound in all albums. small victory.
