Views Slideshow with JQuery Cycle had been working successfully for a long time, displaying a cycling set of 8 photos with cross-dissolve transitions. Recently there have been both core Drupal updates (now on 7.28) and module updates, including JQuery 7.x-2.4. Now it's displaying a blank screen between each content item, for the same duration specified for the content. All content is being displayed, nothing skipped, and transition is correct. It just acts as if a blank item is alternating with the intended content. I have tried going back to earlier versions of Views and JQuery, but with no success in fixing this problem.

Suggestions on why this might happen and how to fix? Thanks!

[I am not familiar with how to get Drupal.settings javascript as requested, so a hint about that will be appreciated if that info is needed in order to comment.]

I found that the problem disappeared when I disabled the module "devel_themer." I began to suspect it only after looking at the dynamic code in Firebug, which showed the images trying to cycle and to cross-dissolve by animating transparency. I saw a lot of modified code referring to this module name, and figured that since it's not the native code that should be seen here, it would be worth trying the disable and see what happens. Problem apparently solved. Only one small detail I haven't figured out – The images seem to shift a pixel or two upon transition. It wasn't doing that prior to the conflicting module being activated. Any ideas about what might cause that?

Many debug mode/modules can interfere with JavaScript, sounds like you found a solid conflict. Re-open if still an issue.
