Converting iphoto slideshows to one

I'm creating a wedding slideshow for someone and I did 3 separate slideshows in iphoto and want to combine all three together but the music has to line up correctly, hence why I put them into different slideshows.
Any idea how I can put all 3 together to make one movie? I'm thinking I have to move all to imovie but not sure what to do in imovie to pull it all together.

The most important thing is that you have a message queue, and that as messages come in, they get queued up and sent out in an orderly manner. Otherwise, messages start writing into other messages.
The next most important thing is to figure out the format of the message you're going to send. How do you know where it stops and the next message begins? Typically, this is handled using (a) a message header (how many bytes in this message) or (b) a sequence of end characters, or (c) send messages through xml.

youy probably will have to force quit - wait long enough that you are sure no disk activity is taking place - if launching iPhoto does not work after the force quit Back up your iPhoto library, Depress the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library

Converting iPhoto slideshow to DVD

I have created a slideshow in iPhoto consisting of appproximatly 150 images. I have used the ability to set the display time for each image to coordinate the images with the audio. Playing the resulting slideshow in iPhoto is great. I want to convert this slideshow to a DVD. Using the "Send to iDVD" option, the slideshow is first converted to a QuickTime .mov file and then automatically imported to a iDVD project, which is a nice feature. The problem is that during the conversion to QuickTime, the images and audio become 'out of sync'. Specifically the images progress slightly faster in QuickTime than in iPhoto. The slideshow, for my purposes, becomes degraded because of this anomaly. I am using the latest versions of iPhoto and QuickTime as of this writing (07/29/06).
Is there a way to compensate for QuickTime changing the display times of the images? If not, are there third party software applications (Adobe?) that can take an iPhoto slideshow and convert to DVD without having to go through QuickTime?

Converting iphoto slideshow (mac) to PSE organizer slideshow (windows 7)

Is there a way to convert a slideshow created with iphoto on a mac to an adobe elements organizer slideshow on windows (vers 7) platform?
Copying pictures is easy but I want to preserve the photo order.
Thanks!

Nope, sorry. You can import the photos and put them into a PSE album, but you'll have to create the slideshow all over from scratch.

Converting iPhoto slideshow to DVD/movie

I made a slideshow in iPhoto with about 150 pictures. It had 2 songs attached to it to play while shpwing the pictures. I want to put it on a DVD to give to friends. When I go to share with iMovie and iDVD it transfers but the music is not attached....just the slide show. What am I doing wrong...Thanks in advance.

I would like to use an external monitor (plasma tv) with my MacBook Pro also, which has a resolution 1365x768 - a resolution which is not available under the Display Preferences. I can use the plasma at a 4:3 radio resolution, but I don't see ANY 16:9 radio resolutions available.
Have you found a solution to this yet?

I exported a iphoto slideshow to desktop, converted it to mpg file by using BURN app, burned to DVD and exported to a USB flashdrive. The DVD looks great but flashdrive is extremely fuzzy. What is the difference and how can I make flashdrive sharper?

Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. For iPhoto 9.4.3 and earlier select Size = Medium or Large. For iPhoto 9.5 and later selct 480p.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

How to restart a slideshow after one ends. Automator/iPhoto

So this is the idea
I want to set up a slideshow playing at an event.
The slideshow will contain pictures from my photostream being uploaded from my iPhone. I would like the slideshow to automatically update with the new pictures from my photostream, but it doesn't look like iPhoto can update with new photstream pictures while the slideshow is running. If anyone knows how to do this it would make things a lot simpler.
Since I don't think the above is possible
I'm looking for a way to trigger a script or an automator process that will restart the iphoto slideshow automatically when the iPhoto slideshow ends.
In effect, I will be running a slideshow of my photostream pictures, the slideshow will end, iPhoto will then update with all the new photostream pictures, and then the slideshow will restart, adding the new photos to the next slideshow.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Yes, it was 9 months ago. Let me think. I don't have the settings anymore because I had to replace my harddrive :(
I actually set up Automator to do two different slideshows.
One in iPhoto and one in aperture.
Since iPhoto won't load new icloud photos during a slideshow I made it to where iPhoto would run and then when it was done aperture would load another slideshow and iPhoto would update in the background. Then the cycle would restart.
I had it to where automated would trigger when the icloud folder had new content loaded to it, iPhoto's slideshow would start. Then an automator timer would countdown, then trigger finder to copy the iPhoto icloud folder contents to the aperture folder during the iPhoto slideshow. When it was done copying (or timer based, can't remember) Automator stopped the iPhoto slideshow, and started the aperture slideshow, allowing time for iPhoto to download more new pictures. I had Automator set to five minutes and it would turn the aperture slideshow off and then start the iPhoto slideshow again and it would start over.
You'll need to put everyone on to an icloud account you set up (and make sure that you take them off or they do, I was receiving some...interesting photos unknowingly for months and then found them later...)
There may be much easier or better ways to do this, or programs that do it now. I had 4 days to figure it out and so I didn't have a lot of research time.

How do i separate two pictures on one slide in iphoto slideshow

I have created an iphoto slideshow. The iphoto software creates some slides with two photos on the slide. Is there a way to separate the two photos to create two slides?

Use a more basic template.

Apple TV no longer plays iPhoto slideshows (individually)

I have been using AppleTV for a couple of years, primarily to play iPhoto slideshows to music on our TV's. With a recent update (either to Apple TV, iTines or iPhoto, not sure, but I think it changed after an Apple TV update) we can no longer watch our individual iPhoto slideshows (By individual slide shows, I mean we used to be able to choose what slide show or album we wanted to play with music on the Apple TV. i.e.: vacation slideshow, birthday slideshow, Christmas slideshow, etc...) Now when you select what photos you want to share in iTunes, I check those albums & slideshows I want available but some do not appear on Apple TV and those that do appear are automatically combined (for example it will combine Vacation and Christams slideshows into one massive slide show and their is no way to select one or the other.) Until a month or two ago this was not the case. I know I can create slideshows and save them to iMovie/iTunes or burn to disc but I do not want to do that, I like keeping them in iPhoto so they can constantly be added to and altered, thats the fun of it!
Any ideas or known fixes would be appriciated. I love how Apple is always changing things for the better, but every so often they update software and end up taking away features that I use! It can be frustrating!
Thanks in adavnce for your help!

I cannot figure out how to move or convert an existing 'slideshow' to an 'album'. (in the end, all I really need to do is move the pix from a given slideshow to an album so I can view it as a slide show on Apple TV) I don't mind if the slideshows are shuffled on the TV as long as I can keep each slide show seperate. I basically use my iPhoto slideshows as a drop off point so we can watch them on Aplle TV. I never really do much with them in iPhoto except add new photos to existing shows now and then, I had the slideshows set to shuffle on Apple TV anyway. If I could figure out how to convert each slide show to its own album that would probably work. (re-creating each slide show is not a good option since some of my family slideshows contain hundreds or in some cases over a thousand photos). I've tried dragging the slide show to "albums" catagory but that doesnt work.
Thank you for the quick response!

Convert iphoto slide show to mov format?

hello, I just want to ask that, can I convert iphoto slide show into mov format??? I tried to select all pics, and export them as a mov, but the problem is, in the iphoto slide show, the pics can be moved and fit the screen size, but when I i export it, the pics just set in the middle , no any effect.

1. Select the photos you want to use, and click on the +. In the window that appears, select slideshow, and give your project a title.
2. Choose your transitions and music.
3. Go to File>Export; this will create a QuickTime movie- a .mov file.
4. For information on playback, read this section from QuickTime Player Help.
_Viewing Movies at Full Screen_
You can set the screen so that only the movie is visible, not the QuickTime Player window, desktop, or other windows. This presentation setting is called "full-screen mode." (You can also set a movie to play at half size, double size, or other sizes.)
To play a movie at full screen, do one of the following:
Choose View > Full Screen.
Choose View > Present Movie, choose Full Screen, and click Play.
To quit full-screen mode, press Esc. To adjust the way the picture is sized to fit your screen, such as stretched to fit or in letterbox format, move the pointer to the top of the screen to display the QuickTime Player menu options, and then choose a setting from the View menu. The following additional options are available in full-screen mode:
Fit to Screen: The content is scaled to fill your screen as fully as possible without cropping the movie or changing the aspect ratio.
Zoom: The content is scaled and cropped to completely fill your screen in at least one dimension. This can eliminate black areas on the top (letterboxing) or side (pillarboxing) but may hide or distort the content.
Panoramic: The content is scaled to fit your screen and the outer horizontal edges compressed to avoid cropping the image.
You can also cycle through all of the available full-screen options by clicking the button in the movie controls that appear when you move the pointer.
You can also set options for all movies playing at full screen. For example, you can hide the movie controls or change the amount of time they're displayed before being hidden. To set these options, see QuickTime Player preferences.
Note: As long as "Display full-screen controls" is selected in QuickTime Player Preferences, you can make hidden controls appear by moving the pointer.
I hope this helps.

Importing iPhoto Slideshows

Is there any way to import good quality iPhoto Slidewhos into iMoive? When I export a slidehow from iPhoto then import it to iMovie the quality is very bad. Whne I export from iPhoto the quality setting is set at highest. Also when I try to simply export the slideshow directly to iDVD, the qalit is still not as good as if I was playing it from iPhoto. Please help.

The iPhoto slideshow displays a collection of photos, not video. It's essentially showing one photo after another, which by definition looks great. (iPhoto is smart enough to add transitions and the Ken Burns effect as the photos are displayed.)
When you export that iPhoto slideshow to QuickTime, the Mac creates a movie. Each photo is re-sized to fit the frame size of the movie, and the photos are converted to video that plays 30 frames per second — instead of one photo for 5 seconds, then another for 5 seconds. The movie has a smaller frame size. And since the image has been converted to another format, doesn't have the quality of the original.
When you import that slideshow to iMovie, iMovie may have to convert the video again, depending on the type of iMovie project it is.
When iDVD burns a DVD it does pretty much the same thing. It converts the iPhoto images to an MPEG-2 movie that can be played on a TV via a DVD player.
These conversions all have to do with preparing the slideshow to play on a TV. The display resolution of the TV is the controlling factor.
If playing on a TV is NOT your goal, you have other options. You can export the iPhoto photos to a large-frame QuickTime movie, for example. That export option is not offered for an iPhoto slideshow, unfortunately, but it is offered for a collection of photos. The exported movie can be set to play each photo for 5 seconds, for example. You can even import that movie to iMovie (which will, of course, convert it to DV.)

IPhoto slideshow export -- jerky Ken Burns rendering

Have an iPhoto slideshow of 25 pictures. On some, I used Ken Burns effect to zoom in, out, etc.
When I export, the result is a .mov file. Everything looks great when I play it on Quicktime, except for some of the photos on which I had used Ken Burns (meaning there's motion). The bad ones don't render properly, and are "jerky" for lack of a more technical word. They get stuck for a couple of seconds, jump forward, get stuck again, etc.
Amazing thing is that I did an export out of Quicktime using Sorenson3, and that seems to have smoothed everything out in a nice way. Result is a movie with no jerkiness, and everything works right.
Two questions:
1) Can I count on the Sorenson3 export method to fix the jerkiness for three other iPhoto slideshow-based movies I'll need to generate, or was this a one-time fluke that Sorenson3 fixed this movie? In other words, is there a principle behind the fix that makes sense and can be counted on?
2) What caused the jerkiness in the first place? Is there something I can do so the original output from iPhoto on Ken Burns photos isn't jerky?
Thanks for any insights.

Kirk,
Did what you suggested, with some tweaks, and it's working nicely. Exported at 3MB/sec -- 2MB didn't render well enough. Tried MPEG-4, and then Sorenson again, and actually the Sorenson worked better for some reason.
So thanks, and now I have one follow up question: My next step is to convert the file to .wmv format so it plays on Windows Media Player. Must do this for a project at work -- where people are on PCs using WMP.
I purchsed Flip4Mac a while ago for this purpose, and that's what I intend to use. Can I simply convert the file exactly as is to .wmv -- keeping all the goodness of the settings that are now working? Will this be an export of an export that will damage the quality of the result?
Thanks for your thoughts.
