I would like to launch ehshell.exe and have it either play all of the slide shows under the Picture Library in Pictures + Video or Play Favorites.
Is the a command line option to do this? poking around on the web I found posts of how to start WMC in live TV mode or how to bring up the guide, or to default the startup page to a given WMC area -- but no dice on actually having it to start playing pictures.
Also, I'm curious if someone has a concise list of all of the command support by /mcesuperbar
I've only be able to come across the following two:
/mcesuperbar://guide -- starts WMC in the guide mode
/mcesuperbar://tv?live=true -- starts WMC in live TV mode
ehshell.exe command line

That should get you started. I don't know what switch to use for "start playing"
This switch starts Windows Media Center in full-screen mode and navigates to the Picture Library.

and then there is....Play a slide show Ctrl+Shift+P

And finally change a keyboard shortcut to vbscript

I am unable to think of any other way to do it.
