HiDef Slide Shows

I have been using iDVD to make my slide shows. But I've never been happy with the HiDef resolution playing DVD's on the TV's.
Is Final Cut Pro a software that will show a better resolution for dvd's with music and blending transitions...
If I play the images directly from iPhoto, using the dissolve transitions and music, it looks beautiful.
When I make a dvd, it must not be a Hi-Definition program because they just don't look as good.
Or is there a different Mac Program, that will play hi-def images to a DVD with music and transitions that someone can recommend...
If Final Cut Pro will work, I am only doing slide programs with disolve transitions, so I don't need anything fancy. So will previous versions of Final Cut Pro work for this? I need them to look excellent when the customer views their slide show on their TV's...
Thanks in Advance....

You're making a comparison between something transferred from film using half a million dollars worth of equipment with a desktop computer albeit a very capable one.
You are also comparing moving footage with still images truth is on DVD Movies there are artifacts its just that you don't notice them because your eye is led by the motion.
SD DVD like most compression standards has an upper and lower bitrate threshold.
DVD Studio Pro will let you set this higher than the standard setting but it could be at the expense of compatibility with older DVD players.
Essentially if you want HD all your clients need to have it too Players and TV's.
I'm sure iPhoto does look great on an HDTV but thats not really something you can compare to SD DVD either.
Have you actually tried resizing your images down to SD dimensions and creating a straightforward SD slideshow DVD you may get better results if you author everything for the delivery platform from the start.

  • How can I control the music that plays during Apple TV photo slide shows?

    I don't want to make my parents listen to Breaking Benjamin music as they watch my photo slide shows on Apple TV. Need something more sedate. But if a B.B. song is in my iTunes music library, it is a candidate for random selection as background music for my slide shows. How do I control what music plays during Apple TV photo slide shows?

    What I find is really silly, is the fact the music video's are listed under that artists albums in the Music menu. And when you go into the video 'album' (called 'Unknown' unless you change it) there is an option to shuffle the tracks. Clicking this just results in an error message. So, they should either remove that option if it is a video album, or, better yet, GET IT TO WORK. So silly of them to omit this.
    I have submitted feedback.

  • A How To: Create a Widescreen High Definition Slide Show from the Organizer

    [EDIT] I just tried another one and, weirdly, that produced an output with black bars around all four sides! So maybe this 'how to' is not 100%.  I have considered deleting the post altogether but, as it does still produce a superior slideshow quality file than the standard ones provided with Elements,  I've decided to leave it with this edit added at the top for additional info.[END_EDIT]
    In answering a question in another forum I found a nice quick way to create proper widescreen high definition slide shows from just the Elements Organizer. Apologies if this is 'old news' to readers, but I've not seen this described elsewhere so I thought I'd share it.
    The Organizer Slide Show creator, if not wanting to edit in PRE, provides a small set of Windows Media Player profiles to create .wmv files. But the best of these goes only to 1024x768 (a 4:3 monitor resolution setting). I've noticed, but never paid much attention to, that at the bottom of the Slide Size box there is a 'Browse for more' option that lets you search for additional Windows Media Encoder profiles. Investigation showed me that I can download the Windows Media Encoder software from Microsoft and create my own profiles. But even further investigation showed  me that someone had already done this! I've tested their full HD profile and it works just fine (1920x1080).
    So if you are just after a straightforward slide show (i.e. not needing PRE features) but want it displayed on your Full HD TV set here is what you do:
    Download the HD Profiles from http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/236895-hd-profiles-for-windows-movie-maker/. There's also a couple of useful SD sizes there as well. Save them somewhere you can easily find them.
    Create your slide show in the Organizer. Obviously use appropriately sized images for HD. There's little point outputting an HD wmv file using low resolution and/or 4:3 aspect ratio images.
    Save and Output your slide show.
    In the output dialog ('Save As a File') scroll down to the bottom of Slide Size and select 'Browse for more ...'.
    Browse to the file you downloaded in step 1 and click Open.
    Click OK and your Widescreen HD .wmv file is prepared.
    Here's a Gspot analysis of my test output file. As you can see it is an HD file with a 16:9, square pixel, aspect ratio.
    Ta Da!

    You did not mention a specific Premiere Elements Elements Organizer combo for this, so for now I will address this from the version 11, not Windows Movie Maker, perspective if I need to get version specific.
    .prx
    The Browse for More is a well known route and does offer at least one Adobe profile for 1280 x 720 16:9. I am not sure where you came up with the lesser resolution,1024 x 768 that you mentioned. The Windows Media profiles have existed for several versions of Elements Organizer. Those Adobe ones that you do not see under Output Save As A File Movie (.wmv), can be found in the Windows 7 or 8 64 bit path
    Local Disc C
    Profile Files (x86)
    Adobe
    Elements 11 Organizer
    Assets
    Locale
    en_US
    tv_profiles
    in the tv_profiles Folder are included the .prx files
    .....10. 640 x 480 Enhanced Definitions
    .....12. 852 x 480 Widescreen Enhanced Definition
    .....14 1280 x 720 Widescreen High Definition
    A homemade 1920 x 1080 16:9 30 frames per second .prx has long been sought but not that easily produced by many using with the Windows Media Encoder Editor. Apparently you have found one online, and it does get accepted into the Premiere Elements 11 Browse for More choices. And, if you do a gspot readout for the wmv output from Elements Organizer 11, it will display all the "right" properties that you hoped for and that are shown in your screenshot.
    The bottom line, why bother with the wmv slideshow? If you take your original photos and size them for 1920 x 1080 16:9, use them in the Elements Organizer 11 Slideshow Editor (Crops used in preferences), use the Edit with Premiere Elements Editor command, what you get in Premiere Elements 11 is full and good in all regard. Have you tried it?
    I can see your interest if this is HD going to HD (AVCHD on DVD or Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc, but I do not see this for an Elements Organizer Slideshow that is going to DVD-VIDEO widescreen.
    More later.

  • Final cut pro crashing with slide show photos

    I am working with a large slide show - a few movie clips, but mostly still images from Aperture.  The photos were shot wtih a Nikon D300 in Raw, not that I think that matters much at all.
    Becasue this is a slide show I am working wth short durations for the images - usually 3:14.  Most of the transitions are simply cross dissolve, but some are more complex.
    I am getting again and again crashes - or the spinning color circle going to oblivion and requiring a Force Quit. 
    Either can happen when adding new material, moving arround existing material, or trying to reset durations, add text, different transitions, or working wth the Ken Burns options.  Sometimes it also happens when resizing the time line zoom level.   This marvelous feature seems the most consistent way of trashing the application so I tend to leave it alone.
    I may be able to work for an hour or only a few minutes.  Sometimes deleting and re-adding an image seems to help, but that may not be true - most of the time it's just simply random.   The system has 14 Gig Ram and I am using iCleanMemory now to see how much is in play.  A crash / freeze may occur with a lot or a little - usually looks like I have about 8.9 Gig in play for normal use of Final Cut and no clear change when it crashes / freezes.
    Clearly the images are compatible - they are from Aperture and there is no consistency in always the same image being the issue.  
    Below is the first part of the error report dump. 
    Hoping someone has an idea for how to overcome this.
    Appreciate the thoughts.

    objc[1012]: garbage collection is OFF

    Well, I filmed many of those videos in HDV (the 2x2 wall, the 5x5 wall and some of the 10x10 wall). Plus I converted the whole project to HDV because it is the way I displayed it (thru camera to Plasma TV's) and I wanted the HD space to work with and since part of my videos were HDV I figured that would be best.
    Of course the DV footage is not so good quality, but when made very small for that big screen it looks fine I think. Yeah the AIC codec is great but it takes 4 times as much room, but you think that would work better hey?
    I just don't want Final Cut crashing like that. I don't care if it can't play it back in real time or it takes 10 seconds to display 1 frame.
    I have not used motion....would it work for what I did. Remember I used over 100 discreet video streams I had. I don't want to replicate the same layer...you get the drift.
    Did you see it in youtubes HD? What did you think of the quality?

  • ANNC: Slide Show Magic

    http://www.projectseven.com/products/galleries/ssm/
    Leaps beyond the ordinary...
    Efficient code and buttery smooth animations make for a truly
    engaging
    user experience. Slide Shows and individual images can be
    bookmarked and
    all images can be viewed - even if JavaScript is disabled.
    Search Engine Friendly
    Unlike many of today's Flash and AJAX applications, Slide
    Show Magic
    markup is always fully visible and indexable by leading
    search engines.
    Auto-Choreographed Animation
    Slide Show Magic detects the size of each incoming full-size
    image. If
    it's the same size as the current image, the system will
    employ a smooth
    cross-fader - simultaneously fading out the current image as
    the new one
    fades in. If the incoming image is a different size than the
    current
    one, the system will fade out the current image, glide the
    image
    container to the size of the incoming image, then fade the
    new image in.
    It's all automatic.
    Staged preloader
    When the slide show is running in automatic mode, the system
    will
    preload the next image as the current one is being shown,
    providing a
    seamless experience in most cases.
    Intuitive toolbar controls
    The on-page toolbar contains conventional media controls:
    First,
    Previous, Play, Pause, Next, and Last buttons. It also
    contains a slider
    bar that allows users to adjust the slide show timing, plus
    buttons to
    toggle visibility of the thumbnail display and navigation
    menu, and an
    image counter.
    Drag-enabled thumbnail panel
    The Thumbnail panel can be dragged about the screen, enabling
    users to
    fine-tune the interface for best viewing of the show.
    Full-Size images can be hyperlinks
    Each full-size image can optionally be set as a hyperlink to
    another
    page, programmed to open in a new window or tab.
    Image descriptions
    Each full-size image can display an optional description,
    which can
    contain any type of valid markup (paragraphs, tables, DIVs,
    lists,
    links, or images).
    Automated image processing with Fireworks...
    Web-ready images are automatically produced from your
    original images,
    which can be located on any drive connected to your computer
    - including
    drives mounted by your digital camera. Slide Show Magic
    handles all
    image processing automatically - preserving your original
    files in their
    original locations in their original and unaltered states.
    Your images
    are scaled, optimized, and neatly organized into folders
    within your
    defined site.
    Import your existing images...
    Point to a folder (or folders) that contain your existing
    full-size and
    thumbnail image and Slide Show Magic will match them up and
    add them to
    your slide show - unaltered and ready to view.
    Organize Images into sets
    Slide Show Magic enables you to define logical image sets and
    organizes
    the thumbnail panel into navigable sets.
    Mix landscape and portrait orientations
    Your images are never distorted in any way. Original aspect
    ratios are
    always preserved. Use both landscape and portrait images in
    the same
    slide show.
    Deploy alone or inside existing layouts
    Slide Show Magic can be inserted on a page by itself or
    inside an
    existing page.
    Select from 6 Themes
    Select a dark toolbar, a light toolbar, shadow boxes (in 3
    sizes), or an
    image rotator interface. Style themes can even be switched
    for existing
    slide shows.
    Manage it all inside a dedicated Dreamweaver Interface
    Add (append) new images
    Delete images or re-order them
    Manage Descriptions, links, and ALT text
    Edit existing full-size or Thumbnail images
    Reprocess all of your slide show's images
    And lots more, including a comprehensive manual and free tech
    support.

    Al,
    Wow. That's extremely cool. I currently don't have a need for
    a slideshow,
    but in the future if I do, you know where I'm heading to.
    Nice product!

  • Problem with jquery slide show conflict with vertical navigation menu in Firefox & Chrome

    Problem with jquery slide show conflict with vertical navigation menu in Firefox & Chrome. Works in IE. This is my first time trying to post a question - so please be kind. I am also not good with code and am finding css a real challenge after learning to design based on tables. I'm using CS5.
    The "test" page with the slide show is: http://www.reardanwa.com/index-slides.html   The same page without the slide show is http://www.reardanwa.com/
    I realize the images are not ideally sized - I'll fix those once I get the pages to function.  Maybe I need a different slide show? I would prefer a widget that I can modify to required size & postition. Again - I'm not good at building with code from scratch.
    The problem is the naviagation links that are directly next to the slide show do not work in Firefox of Chrome. They do work in IE.
    I've read about using jQuery.noConflict(); code but can't figure out the correct way to use it in my case or whether that's even part of the solution. I know my code is not well organized as I have cobbled together from various sources in an attempt to format the page the way the client wants it. Also, FYI, I will eventually try to make the page work in Surreal CMS.
    I've spent sevaral days over the last several weeks trying to solve sth slide show/navigation conflict - so any specific light you can shed will be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Captions not displaying in iphoto slide show in my iPad 4

    Hi
    I am trying to create slide show in iphoto and  want to add caption/text/title in that...I am able to add captions to the photo in edit mode however it doesnt show in the slide show...also I am confused about iphoto versions...my iPad show version 2.0.1 however the discussions I saw on this forum point towards iphoto 9,10,11...
    Please help me with my problem as I want to create a nice slide show with photos, text and music

    Slideshows on the iPad (or on any handheld device) do not support titles, only the slideshows in iPhoto on the Mac do that.
    In the settings you can select a theme, select music, and set the spped, and that is all there is,  see:  http://help.apple.com/iphoto/ipad/2.0/#blnkd19951ed

  • I am trying to connect my Macbook pro 2010 to my Samsung HDTV using a mini display port to hdtv cable. Trying to play a slide show in IPhoto but I only get sound with no picture. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I am trying to connect my Macbook pro 2010 to my Samsung HDTV using a mini display port to hdtv cable. Trying to play a slide show in IPhoto but I only get sound with no picture. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I keep saying this over and over, in the hope that people who do a search will find it.  Apple cannot possibly test for or be reponsible for the bazillion combinations of adapter, cables, and TV's out there.  The only monitors that are 100% guaranteed to work with the MacBook Pro are the Cinema Displays and Thunderbolt Displays, because, they're made by Apple.  They're expensive, but they work perfectly.
    My guess is that you bought a cheap MDP to HDMI cable, or have a defective one.  From my reading of these boards over the past few months, cheap cables have a high failure rate.  And the regular priced ones have only a slightly less of one.  Try a new one.  Make sure you do not damage the Thunderbolt port.

  • This is my first time using iphoto, I am trying to make a slide show that I can then burn to a dvd. The slide show is complete, but I'm not sure where to go now. Can I burn the slide show from iphoto or do I have to export to imovie or idvd?

    I have completed the slide show i am making, but not sure what to do now. I want to burn it to a dvd, but not sure if i can do that from iphoto or do i need to export to imovie or idvd? If i need to export, will iphoto save a copy in iphoto? This may be really stupid, but I don't see an obvious way to save my slide show in iphoto. Please Help!

    Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  Select Size = Medium or Large.
    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.
    NOTE:  If you're running iPhoto 9.5 the export options will be different.

  • How do I make sure my music will play when I burn a copy of a slide show?

    How do I make sure my music will be included when I burn a copy of a slide show.  I have made many many slide shows over the years with the music in perfect sync to the slides.  I recently updated my iMac to OS 7.  I did not want to do it because I heard it created issues with iPhoto. But because I had updated my iPhone and my iPad, and although I don't like OS 7 (the first time  I have not liked an upgrade)  I thought I could figure out how to solve problems/ differences.  Well, this has me stumped.  It plays perfectly on my iMac, but when I burned a copy to share with friends, the music did not burn or transfer.  Does anyone have any ideas why this does not work, and what I have to do to ensure that the music I selected and added to the slide show using the settings did not burn along with the iPhoto slide show?
    Mairzy

      I recently updated my iMac to OS 7
    What is really your MacOS X version? iOS 7 is the operating system for iPhone, iPad, iPod.
    But what versions are you using on your iMac? Have you upgraded to Mavericks, MacOS X 10.9.x and iPhoto 9.5.1, or are you using an earlier version?
    It plays perfectly on my iMac, but when I burned a copy to share with friends, the music did not burn or transfer.
    How did you export the slideshow and burn the DVD?
    To have the music play along with the slideshow, you need to export your Slideshow project as a video file - use the "Export" button below the Slideshow window and select a format.
    Check, if the exported video does play well and the audio is present.
    Then burn a video DVD using iDVD or Toast, or a similar program to burn video DVDs,  see:

  • What is the best way to save and copy high resolution slide show?

    Creating and saving/burning slide shows in iMovie or iDVD does not appear to give the same high resolution as playing slide shows directly from iPhoto.  Resolution is also lost when exporting the slide show to iTunes.  Is there a recommended technique to preserve resolution when saving a slide show?

    Click the "Export" icon on the bottom of the application window.
    Click the "Custom Export..." button on the bottom left hand side of the new menu that appears at the top of the application window.
    At the bottom of the next window click the "Options..." button.
    Under the "Video" setting, click the "Size..." button.
    Next to "Dimensions:" click the "Compressor native" drop down menu.
    In there you have "1920 x 1080 HD".
    There are a bunch of other options, so explore and find what works best for you.

  • Ultra high memory usage when deleting a slide show

    Hallo,
    I have a DVD project with several menus and slideshows and a huge flowchart. I wanted to delete one of the slide shows. What happened then was that the memory usage rised up to over 2 GB. Not the usage of the exe shown in the windows task manager under "processes", but the swap file usage.
    The first time I waited for like 5 minutes, and then Encore closed itself. Without any error message.
    The next time I waited as long again, but then the swap file usage went down slowly again. After that Encore refreshed its window. The flow chart was what you could best describe as "broken". Encore then stated some abnormal condition and offered me to save the file, and recommended to save it under a different file name. I clicked on "ok", but instead of a file save dialog a C++ runtime error box appeared. I click "ok" for that, then the "you should save but under a different name" box appeared again. I clicked on "ok" again, the C++ error reappeared, and after clicking on "ok" there Encore closed itself.
    I made a screenshot on which you can see the high swap file memory usage and the broken flowchart. You can download the screenshot under
    http://www.digitale-bibliothek.de/Downloads/ScreenEncoreDVD.jpg
    I will now try to first delete all references to the slideshow in the flow chart. But as I cannot delete an asset that is still used in a slideshow or a timeline, Encore DVD should also prevent me from deleting objects that are used in the flowchart, if it is such a problem for Encore to delete the object then.
    Regards,
    Christian Kirchhoff

    I'm a little confused as to where you tried to delete the slideshow from.
    Was it from the actual Project Browser, where all the assets are listed?
    Can you try deleting the surplus slideshow from there, and let us know what happens please?

  • Where is the frame rate setting control when making a slide show?

    I am trying to make a slide show using QuickTime Pro and cannot find the frame rate control.I put all my consectively-numbered jpegs in one folder. I then clicked on "File," the "Open Image Sequence," then a window opened up and I click on the first jpeg in the series of photos I want in my slide show. Then the first image appears in the QT Window. The instructions next say that I should be able to change the rate at which each slide/jpeg appears, but it doesn't tell you where to find the "frame rate" so I can change it. It doesn't appear at all on its own, so where is it? Anything else I'm missing? Thank you.

    What version of Photoshop Elements and or Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system?
    In addition, could you please clarify?
    It sounds like you are creating your slideshow in the Elements Organizer. Where are you seeing these distortions and blurs, in the Elements Organizer Slideshow Editor Filmstrip or in the Premiere Elements workspace after you have transferred the slideshow from the Elements Organizer 9 Slideshow Editor to Premiere Elements workspace?
    What are the pixel dimensions of the photos in this slideshow and how many of these photos are in the slideshow? What format are they in..jpg, psd, other?
    With regard to what you wrote:
    Also how do I transport them from Elements to Premier, it has a tab to do that but when I get to the elements file I don't know where to drag and drop into.
    If you are in the Elements Organizer Slideshow Editor and use the Output option Edit with Premiere Elements, then you would expect the automatic transfer of the slideshow to Premiere Elements, with a copy in video format (.psess) in the project media as well as on the Timeline. Nothing for you to drag and drop.
    For all those reasons, I am asking for clarification.
    Thanks.
