You can change the timeout in the 'before' callback, but changing the transition is quite problematic. $('#slideshow').cycle({ before: function(currSlide, nextSlide, opts) { // change timeout for first slide var index = $(this).parent().children().index(this); opts.timeout = index == 0 ? 5000 : 3000; } });
