Making Quicktime slide shows (videos) with Windows

Hello. With the Mac platform, I am able to use my photo program, iPhoto, export photos from it and make a Quicktime slide show (video, with accompanying music from my music program, iTunes. Is this also possible with Windows, ie: where would the 'Export' command be and how would music be integrated into it? Any other helpful comments would be appreciated. Thank you.

You can open many different audio and image formats with the Windows version of QuickTime Pro. To assemble a slide show of still images you could open a folder of liked sized, sequentially named images and add that new file "scaled" to the audio track.
You could also open the audio track and "add scaled to selection" your individual image files. This method would allow you set the duration of each slide to different values but would limit your show to 98 images (99 track limit).
This method could also use different image dimensions, different "offsets", transparency "blends" and mask layers. Depending on your intended distribution format you could make HD sized QuickTime movies with multiple images displaying simultaneously (Brady Bunch style).
One of my older QuickTime files made using still images:

  • Making a slide-show disk with music self-playable

    I have burned a slideshow disk with music through Keynote. In "Inspector", I made sure that zI selected "self-playable" before recording and saving it. However, when I put the disk in my iMac, the icon appears on my desktop, I click on the icon, a window pops up with the file on it, and I click on the file. Then Keynote opens up with the slideshow showing in "Navigator" and I have to press or select play for the slideshow to play.
    What must I do to have the slideshow play as soon as the disk is loaded or at least when I click on the icon of the disk on my desktop?
    Thanks for your help.

    Place the individual music files into a new iTunes playlist. Choose it (not the individual files) by hitting the OK button.

  • HT1557 where do i find Universal Binary Component compatible with Intel-based Macintosh that allows quicktime to show video?

    where do i find the link to the Universal Binary Component compatible with Intel-based Macintosh that allows quicktime to show video?

    I think your question is too vague to get an answer.
    You're asking for a 'Universal Binary component' for your 'Intel-based Macintosh'. Why universal binary?
    universal binaries are designed to work on both PowerPC and Intel machines. If you're using an Intel machine why do you need PowerPC support?
    Also, you want something that 'allows QuickTime to show video'. Well, not to be glib, but QuickTIme does video - that's it's raison d'etre. Therefore I think your question is more about how to get QuickTime to show a specific (non-standard?) video format. Without knowing what that format is, it's impossible to answer your question directly.
    That said, maybe the place to start is Apple's QuickTime Components index.

  • QuickTime Slide Shows in iPhoto

    Is it possible to edit a QuickTime Slide Show (often called a QuickTime movie), i.e. is it possible to change the music in a completed QuickTime Slide Show. Let's say that I make a slide show in iPhoto and I add the music, and I file it in a folder. Can I take that slide show and later change the music in that slide show, ie exchange the selected song with another song. Or do I have to remake the slide show in order to add the other music?

    Depending on the type of slide show you've made (iPhoto makes two styles) you can edit the final .mov file using QuickTime Pro.
    One of the iPhoto types uses three nearly identical video tracks slightly offset in time and another track that provides the "fade" effect. The other type is a 30 fps (frames per second) video that contains transitions and effects and all is contained in one video track.
    Lets assume that your music track is three minutes in either type. Adding a 4 minute new audio track will slow down the playback and alter the frame rate. Not a big deal for a simple fade slide show but it will reduce the frame rate when added scaled.
    Open your new sound file using QT Pro, select all (Command-A) and copy (Command-C).
    Switch to your slide show movie, select all and "Add to Selection & Scale" from the Edit menu.
    Open the Movie Properties window. Highlight your original sound track and "Delete".
    Use Save As, name the file and pick a location to save. This will leave your original file intact.
    Same images and effects as the original with a new audio track.
    Don't use music purchased from the iTunes Music Store. They are protected and can't be exported to QuickTime formats.

  • 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.

    How do I move Elements 8 projects (slide shows) from a Windows XP computer to new Windows 7 computer that also has Elements 8 on it so that the slides shows will work (Elements 8 works well on the Windows 7 computer & I have done several new slide show projects on it)?    I tried backup & restore without success.  I have also found the .psess files and copied them to the catalog in the new computer but when the sides shows are opened none of the images or music is there.  Only the text that I entered shows.  I have even tried to replicate the file paths from the XP computer to the new computer to see if that will help.

    UPDATE:  By a stroke of luck I happened to find a catalog link (a PSE8D file) in the 'My Catalog' file where the imported data was stored.  When I clicked on it to investigate what is was 'magically' all of my transferred projects appeared in Organizer.  Upon further investigation I found that the projects transferred from my XP computer were stored in a hidden catalog that had to be accessed through the Custom Location option in Catalog Manager (accessed by clicking File then Catalog then Custom Location).  No Windows or Elements search revealed this fact.  I am appreciative that I just got lucky.  The Adode/Photoshop company was absolutely of no help.  If fact to me their structure is designed to avoid contact with their customers unless you're buying a new product.  Their products have many good features (even though user unfriendly) and it's a shame they don't value their customers more once the sale is completed. 
    Bottom line:  All of the projects (sideshows) have been recovered and work in my new Windows 7 computer.  I hope my experience helps others. 

  • Looking for a site that shows problems with windows patches or updates.

    Looking for a site that shows problems with windows patches or updates...so I know what not to install.
    Plenty of sites list and summarize individual patches, I want one that consolidates problems and complaints so I can better assess the risk. Currently I'm waiting to install patches several days and doing google searches. That works, but I'd rather find a place

    Thanks in and advance for suggestions

    Hi,
    I agreed with Cyber and Rick.
    Windows update helps to keep your PC safer—and your software current—by fetching the latest security and feature updates from Microsoft via the Internet.
    Although there might be some problems when installing it, Windows update is not the one to blame.

    And the top of the day to you,
    Is there a way to add different text to each photo before making a slide show? I know you can do this in PS4 but it is not very easy. Any ideas?
    Al

    Use the Caption metadata to add slide text then click the ABC icon in the slideshow module, followed by clicking the up/down icon, then choose Edit. Insert the Caption option from the IPTC Data box.

  • Making a Slide show with Video, Pictures, and Music

    Hi,
    I'm putting together a slide show with music containing music, narration, pictures and video shot from different cameras…would like to export in the best quality i can…
    What formats:
    o Pictures
    o Video
    o Audio
    o Narration
    along with:
    Codecs
    Compressions
    Are best used with FCE?

    Thanks very much for your response...one of the cameras used was a Sony HDV U1000...I believe it was shot 1080i..couldn't tell you what other cameras were, but I'm pretty sure they weren't HD cameras...just trying to help a buddy edit his project, but it seems the formats are all over the place....Trying to convert the sources so we can output a good product...I would probably use iDVD to make the DVD...I've made some videos for another friend using my Sony VX2100 and they look awesome...
    Thanks again for your help, it's very appreciated!

  • Slide Show video exports from Macs to Windows

    I work on a Mac.  When I export a Slide Show as Video anyone with a mac has no problem viewing it.  my windows friends however can't open it.  any suggestions?

    Slideshows exported as video will play in the Adobe Media Player, Quicktime player and Windows Media player 12 (as well as quite a few other players, the best being VLC). The first two work on widows XP, Vista and 7 and OSX, the windows media player 12 on Windows Vista and 7. They must have a video player installed on their system to play the slideshows. All these are free for them to download. If they haven't got one of these players installed, other than suggesting that they do so, there is not a lot you can do...

  • Are there any step-by-step directions for making a slide show with music on iDVD?

    I once knew how to do this, but lost my directions (from a friend) in make a slide show using iDVD.  Where could I download the steps for making a DVD that I could play on my DVD player and view on my TV monitor.?

    I will try this.  I did go to help, but did not click on that subject.  Actually, all of a sudden it worked, except that the music I choose did not work.  So, I will work on this later.  Thanks for the suggestion.

  • Making a slide Show composed of pictures and videos.. Compatability questio

    So I was given some home movies (on DVD) and some pictures (in JPEG Format) from a family friend and asked to make a slide show.
    I have some questions regarding FCE:
    1. In the past I've had problems with interlacing regarding moving pictures (i.e. ken burns effect) - the pictures would come out distorted and clear horizontal interlacing lines would flicker. The flicker filter and deinterlace didn't work and I've tried the 1 px blur before hand. The problem is completely random and annoying. If anyone has any recommendations on how to fix this before I start it would be much appreciated. Should I change the pictures to a different format? resize?...
    2. I will use MPEG stream clip to convert the dvd's to DV format and then use a DV format easy setup in FCE with a 4:3 aspect ratio (is this correct)? Are there any timeline settings I should change to specifically support this kind of format along with the JPEG's?
    3. What export settings should I use if I plan to burn this to a DVD and play it on a projector?
    Thanks in advance, let me know if I need to clarify anything.

    Haven't started using the pictures yet so I haven't had to use any filters, I was just stating some problems I've experienced in the past to see if anyone could give me a preemptive solution.
    I am more concerned with getting all the setup options correct before I start. I'd also like to know what export settings are best for DVD use as I've had some blurring problems with exports in the past as well. And I usually do not do a full render of the sequence before I export, I was under the impression it renders automatically when you do an export.
