I have looked at qiv already and is almost perfect. The problem with it is that it seems to require a text file containing the names of the images you want it to display (the -F parameter in other words). Do you know if it's possible to use it without that, by telling it to use a directory as the location of the images?
How about automating the generation of a directory list as a text file for qiv to use at startup? Perhaps it would be possible to periodically send a signal to qiv to update its list? I haven't used qiv before, and not sure if it can be caused to update on the fly (i'm thinking in terms of a daemon which can be caused to re-read its environment variables, and settings, etc.).
