slide show software
« on: February 27, 2008, 12:58:02 am »

Hi guys!

  I'm trying to figure out how to put together a slide show of my photos of the Sierras. I have a DVD program called Roxio and it can do a little of what I want, but not all that I want to do.

  My problem is putting more than one piece of music on the slide show. I can figure out how to add one mp3, but no more than that. My slide show will run approx. 8 minutes and I need a couple of pieces of music for that.

  Does anyone know of any software that will allow me to do that (and do it simply if possible   )

I know this is going to be beyond what you asked for, but you may want to check out a Mac. They include a nice photo organizer called iPhoto with the machine. iPhoto does great slide shows, integrates with iTunes and exports directly to iDVD which actually sets up DVDs with your slideshow.  The best part is that if you edit a photo in iPhoto (or in Aperture) the edits show up in the slide show.

On the Windows side, my camera club friends use Prophoto Gold on Windows platform. Good luck, and enjoy the show.

Hello henkelphoto

If you are on a Mac I can only recommend Fotomagico

[a href=\"http://www.boinx.com/fotomagico/overview/]http://www.boinx.com/fotomagico/overview/[/url]

This software is great and I use it a lot.

Another software I use is called photopresenter http://www.arizona-software.ch/


I can not help in the windows world

If your looking to record your own music and mix it the way you want I suggest Audio Hijack Pro.  Its only 10 bucks and I've used it to mix together songs to fit a longer slideshow.  And if your not on a mac GET ONE!  iPhoto is great except the quality on a TV screen can be compromised.   iDVD can be better and you can mix more than one slideshow together because it allows you to have a menu screen.  The best thing is they are included when you buy a mac.  I break my landscapes down to east and west but put both of them on the same DVD.  Is a greener way to send your portfolio to galleries and you can reach a much larger client base.
