Creating Hgh Resolution photo slideshow to upload to youtube

Hi, I've created a slideshow in iPhoto with 55 photos and a song to go with it. The highest export resolution there is is 640*480 and it comes out very blurry (especially when you try to enlarge it to full screen).
When i decided to try iDVD i realized it only exports to a dvd format and not to any kind of media that i can upload to you tube.
I don't think iMovie has a better option either.
All I'm looking for is to create a high resolution slideshow from my photos to share on youtube.
Does anyone have any suggestions....? I will be very grateful.

The following approach of creating a QT movie slideshow will give you the option of specifying a higher resolution in its width and height settings. Here's an example of a fast loading, looping embedded slideshow (not mine):
http://www.heese-cadieux.com
...and done like this:
iPhoto > select photos > File > Export... > QuickTime tab ...set width and height, etc.
Then iWeb > Media button > Movies tab ...drag in your movie created above by iPhoto.
Then iWeb > Inspector > QuickTime tab ...settings.
Note: The above generates a QT slideshow of small file size and thus appears quickly in a web browser. But the transitions are limited to a simple "fade in and fade out" — no Ken Burns effect, etc.

Can II have create a 160 photo slideshow as a looping DVD for a TV set DVD?

I have ~160 digital photos that I would like to run as a looping show for a family party. They range in size from .5 to 1.5 mb. I know each chapter in iDVD5 has a 99 picture limit, so that won't work for me.
I've imported the photos from iPhoto while in iMovieHD, put transitions between them, then imported that project while in iDVD. It had 2 chapters (one with 99 pics) with one chapter set to loop. I burned it and could watch it on my tv's dvd (a Samsung), though it did not loop at all. The DVD wouldn't even play on a Sony DVD player.
I can't quite justify (or afford a Final Cut product), but might have hit the limit of iLife.

Not sure why your iMovie method did not work. If you put your iMovie in the "autoplay" area you see in the map layout of iDVD and set it to "loop" in the advanced menu, it should loop just fine.

If this didn't work on some DVD players, you might try another brand of DVD-R. I like verbatim.
Alternatively, you can make the slideshow in iPhoto and use "Send to iDVD" - this also creates a QT file, so it is not subject to the 99 slide limit.

Creating Apple TV photo slideshow in Windows/Converting .mov to Apple TV

I have a newly purchased 160 GB Apple TV and am having some difficulty creating a slideshow. Ideally, Apple would offer iPhoto for Windows or I would own a Mac, but neither is currently true.
So, what is the best/easiest/cheapest way to create an iPhoto-esque slideshow in Windows XP? (transitions and audio track)
In my initial attempts to accomplish this task, I have created a slideshow using QuickTime. I opened a music file in QuickTime, then opened an Image Sequence in QuickTime, then copied the image sequence and Added and Scaled to the audio track. Finally, I saved this "slideshow" as a QuickTime movie (.mov). This isn't ideal, because there are no transitions and if the photos aren't all landscape it's troublesome. Nonetheless, I tried to open this QuickTime Movie then use the Export to Apple TV conversion process. Unfortunately, QuickTime basically just freezes when I try this. The progress bar never moves from 0%. Any advice here?
Thanks.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
The simplest way to make a slideshow without adobe photo elements is simply to put collections of photos into folders and sync them to the tv. tv will allow you to add transitions and add a soundtrack from any music you also have synced. In the current version of tv the ending of the slideshow is a little abrupt but I'm sure it will improve in future versions.
I can't think why QT won't convert your QT (slideshow) movies, perhaps you can tell us a little about the movie. Open in QT, open the movie info window and post back the info you find there.

I want to create a dvd photo slideshow and soundtrack

that can be played on any dvd player...
Can I use the Panther version of i-dvd for this?
I've viewed the i-dvd tutorial, but is there a more in-depth training? I don't know how to edit the music together!
Thanks.

It can be done yes - my wife has had loads of fun
with this. Recommended though - do not upgrade to
Quicktime 7.1 yet if you plan to use animated menus
(many of the default themes use these) with .mp3
music.
My wife uses GarageBand to essentially cut and paste
the tracks together to get one long music track and
then adds that to the music portion of the slide
show. That way the music doesn't just start
repeating itself after awhile.
I believe you have at least two options for photo
slide shows. One is to use iPhoto and create an
album and then slideshow, and choose Share->iDVD
which will import it using whatever effects you've
added.
The second is either iMovie or iDVD direct (can't
recall, and I'm at work) - just add the photos,
specifiy the transitions, and what music to play.
Very cool, although I ended up choosing music that
was very somber and it almost looked like a tribute
to my fallen family. My wife has since added
more upbeat music. Good luck!
Wow, thanks alot! The part about GarageBand was really helpful. Should i get iLife?
Also, were you able to view your finished dvd on any dvd player? i've heard there are compatability problems. i have to send the finished product to a third party for screening.

How to create a photo slideshow in imovie 11

describe how to create a 200 photo slideshow from the start using imovie 11 with titles, transitions and music and then burn it to a dvd

iMovie is to edit movies; creating a slideshow is easier in iPhoto. When finished, you can then move it to iMovie or iDVD to create a cool menu/theme and burn it.
Here is a link to Apple support - I searched for "how to create a slideshow in iPhoto":
http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=search&src=support_site.home.search&local e=en_US&q=how%20to%20create%20a%20slideshow%20in%20iPhoto
A much better alternative would be Photo to Movie (not free) - it does everything you want:

Creating photo slideshow on iPad 2

Hi all,
Brand new iPad user here and was wondering if the iPad 2 has the capability of creating your own photo slideshows?
Is there an app where I can do this? i.e. arrange photos, add transitions/effects, music, titles etc?
Many thanks

Yes, I already know that I can tap to get full screen view, but that is far less convenient. I want to be able to see a larger thumbnail so that I can easily select several at once to either move or delete. Thanks any way!

Error message when uploading to Youtube

Hello;
I am having trouble uploading videos to Youtube. I keep getting the following message: "Online services encountered an error. The service will now be terminated or paused if possible." What does this mean and how do I fix the problem?
Thanks

Just got finished with my test runs of Premiere Elements 11, 12, and 13 for upload of Timeline content to YouTube from within the Premiere Elements Publish+Share area.
Only same 8 photos on Timeline uploaded to YouTube (High Definition Video for YouTube - 1920 x 1080)
Premiere Elements 13, two times....once as is and once refreshed Online Services, closed program, reopened program
When the progress reached Uploading the error is "Online Services encountered....."
When the same 8 photos were uploaded in Premiere Elements 11 or 12 on the same computer in the same time frame,
there was no problem. The uploads went to successful completion in the Premiere Elements feature.
No solution, but wait. I have yet to clear the Cached Web Content and shut down the computer router. My default browser
for this was Mozilla Firefox v 32.0.3. Based on Saskwatch's success with Safari and Vimeo, I may try Internet Explorer 11.
Right now my browser choices are Firefox, Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer.
I am working from Premiere Elements 13 tryout. Are you working with a purchased version of 13?
More later.

Is it better to output t master file and then upload to youtube?

I had to upload 33 videos to youtube today
This has taken tooo long
Just wondering, is it better to create a master file and then upload to youtube?
I could maybe just copy the files to another machine and leave it to upload?
Thanks
Omar

just to add:
don't try to upload your Masterfile to YouTube!
usually, the Masterfile is a copy of the projects timeline = proRes.
that creates incredible large files = time for upload, wasting bandwidth, and YT will complain 'wrong settings'
After saving a masterfile, which goes fast, you should use a 'Converter' of your choice (QuicktimePro, Mpg Streamclip, Compressor) to transcode into YT's recommended upload settings.-

What is the best program to create a rehearsal dinner slideshow with audio, photos, and text?

I am about to make a slideshow/movie for my sister's wedding that includes photos, music, and text/titles. Is imovie the best for this? keynote? or perhaps some other app I am unaware of? Thanks for your input!

There are many ways to produce slide shows using iPhoto, iMovie or iDVD and some limit the number of photos you can use (iDVD has a 99 chapter (slide) limitation).
If what you want is what I want, namely to be able to use high resolution photos (even 300 dpi tiff files), to pan and zoom individual photos, use a variety of transitions, to add and edit music or commentary, place text exactly where you want it, and to end up with a DVD that looks good on both your Mac and a TV - in other words end up with and end result that does not look like an old fashioned slide show from a projector - you may be interested in how I do it. You don't have to do it my way, but the following may be food for thought!
Firstly you need proper software to assemble the photos, decide on the duration of each, the transitions you want to use, and how to pan and zoom individual photos where required, and add proper titles. For this I use Photo to Movie. You can read about what it can do on their website:
http://www.lqgraphics.com/software/phototomovie.php
(Other users here use the alternative FotoMagico: http://www.boinx.com/fotomagico/homevspro/ which you may prefer - I have no experience with it.)
Neither of these are freeware, but are worth the investment if you are going to do a lot of slide shows. Read about them in detail, then decide which one you feel is best suited to your needs.
Once you have timed and arranged and manipulated the photos to your liking in Photo to Movie, it exports the file to iMovie as a DV stream. You can add music in Photo to Movie, but I prefer doing this in iMovie where it is easier to edit. You can now further edit the slide show in iMovie just as you would a movie, including adding other video clips, then send it to iDVD 7, or Toast, for burning.
You will be pleasantly surprised at how professional the results can be!
To simply create a slide show in iDVD 7 onwards from images in iPhoto or stored in other places on your hard disk or a connected server, look here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1089
I haven't rried using Keynote, but that may also be a possibility.

How to create a photo slideshow in my movie

Hello all,
Im woking on my first movie with Premier Elements 12 and I can not figure out how to include a slideshow of pictures at the end of my movie.
Of course I can drag the photos on the timeline and use trancients in between but there is nothing I can do with the picture like editting/cut parts off, make them black/white and use movement effects for example.
Isnt this an option/included in Premiere lements 12 ?
I just bought the software but also played around with the trial of Cyberlink Powerdirector which has this handy magic function to select all pictures at once and create different/random trancirents and effects and pictures could be editted also.
This is what Im after but I can not find how to do this stuff in Premiere lements 12.
Hope someone can help me out.
Thatnks in advance

AlexSan
Do you have Photoshop Elements 12 as well as Premiere Elements 12?
What is this "movie" that the photo slideshow is going to be at the end of? A video? If so, what are the
properties of that video...video and audio compressions, frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, file extension, pixel aspect ratio?
What is your intended final product...DVD-VIDEO standard or widescreen on DVD disc, AVCHD on DVD disc, or Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc?
With the above information, I will suggest some approaches that you might want to look into.
Thanks.

Creating photo slideshow in iMovie 09

Hi guys,
I have been given the advice to create a photo slideshow in iMovie.
So far I have manage to sort out my photos and import them using iPhone and the Finder but am now up to the stage of putting the photos in the slide show.
There are quite a number of photos and I think by using the Ken Burns effect on every slide is a little overwhelming.
Is there any way I can use any of the other effects like just a simple fade-in?

AppleMan1958 gives you some good information. I have reviewed an earlier version of the slideshow feature of iPhoto on my website and have a short sample slideshow created using iPhoto.
Here is the link to my free photo slideshow software review of iPhoto.
http://www.great-family-photo-slideshows.com/free-photo-slideshow-software.html
I also provide information on creating a slideshow, choosing the music, etc.
Good luck.

Slideshow created in i-photo freezes in i-dvd. Why?

A slideshow created in I-Photo 09 runs fine in I-photo, but when dropped into the slideshow manager of I-dvd the slideshow freeses at the first photo. Using OSX 10.6.8, Snow Lepord, on an I-mac with 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. Suggestions?
Thanks,

Suggestion? Ask on the iDVD forum.

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
Have you tried Repopulating iTunes with the files that you have problems with.

Creating Photo Slideshows w/Audio

Can FCE be used to create elaborate photo slideshows with music and can the photo source come from my photo library (not from I-Photo)?

Yes, you can use all the effects and transitions that FCE has to offer. You can use any photos or artwork provided it is on a file that FCE can import eg. .tif, .jpeg etc.
You need to watch out for interlacing artifacts and also be warned that your fantastically impressive pictures will look a little less impressive when viewed on a TV.

Iphoto does not support the resolution of my dslr camera...how do i upload full resolution photos?

iphoto does not support the resolution of my dslr camera...how do i upload full resolution photos?

You actually need to give information to get help - just stating an abstract problems (which is most certainly not a problem at all) gives the volunteers hearer nothing to work with to help you
What version of iPhoto? Of the OS? What exactly is the problem (iPhoto does support the resolution of your camera so that is NOT a problem)? what exactly are you doing? What error messages do you get? why do you incorrectly think that iPhoto does not support full resolution?
At this time your question is like my car won't start - why not? Could be anything from you did not put the key jun to being out of gas to having the engine stolen - no way to tell anything - except that the problem you claim is not true (at least in my example I would know that the car did not start)
