Dynamic display block slideshow module for Drupal

My installation is:
* Drupal 6.13
* Dynamic display block module (RC6) 6.x-1.0-rc6
* jQuery update module 6.x-1.1
* CCK module 6.x-2.4
* Views module 6.x-2.6
* filefield module 6.x-3.1
* imagefield module 6.x-3.1
* imageapi module 6.x-1.6
* imagecache 6.x-2.0-beta9
* Embedded Media Field 6.x-1.2
* Zero Point 6.x-1.7

My problem was as follows:
When installing if statement before $vars['slider_items'] = $slider_items;
to the [theme_name]_preprocess_ddblock_cycle_block_content as indicated in the preprocess_function_ddblock_embedded_video.txt, ddblock_embedded_video view did not work.

What was watched was a white screen with black bars on certain sides

My solution was as follows (it is indicated in bold - Keep in mind that is already installed an advanced display block Dynamic slideshow):

Results:
Everything is working very well.

I love this module, much more than others that can be considered as its competition.

Thank you very much for your cooperation and facilitate our work.
