I have implemented two views slideshows with this module. One rotates every 8,000 milliseconds and works fine. Thie other should rotate every 1,800,000 milliseconds (=30 minutes) but does NOT rotate at all.

Is there a maximum value for the timer delay? Can this be changed somehow (with close to zero PHP knowledge)?

Or could perhaps somebody point me to a module which has the functionality I need: rotating slideshow of a block, filled with text, not picture?

Any help is very much appreciated.

You know that if someone navigates away from the page, and then comes back, the timer restarts, right? How often is someone going to sit looking at one page for half an hour? even then, they're gonna be pretty surprised if it suddenly changes while they're reading or something.

If it's text, are you taking into account that people read at different speeds? Perhaps a better idea would be a paginated view, so that people can click forward/back as they want?

There isn't a maximum set in the code. And I don't think js has a maximum, but naught101 gives good suggestions. Closing this as fixed. Feel free to reopen if you have more info.
