Hi,
I have almost the same problem as jasoncamp on my site and it often happends when switching tab in the browser. When I go back to my page the slideshow shows all images at once and after a while it goes back to normal again.
I am using version 2.7.3 of Smart Slideshow Widget
and version 3.2.1 of wordpress
with this settings:
Effect: fade
Delay: 10
Order: random
Have you made any fix for this in version 2.7.4?
Thanks a lot for a great plugin!
