Mpeg-4 sound file and Jpeg's

Question

I don't know if QT is the correct program but I have some JPEG photos and some MPEG4 audio files. I am trying to make a "movie" i.e. #1JPEG and #1 MPEG4 and MPEG4 is 30 seconds long the #2 JPEG and #2 MPEG4 is 20 seconds so that when played all 12 photo's and associated MPEG's will play as a movie.
Would QT Pro be the correct program? I have IMOVIE 6 HD but I can't seem to add the MPEG4 track as an audio track.

Answer 1

Would QT Pro be the correct program?
It certainly is one application that can do this. The basic work flow would be as follows:
1) Open an MPEG-4 audio file.
2) Use the "Open File..." File menu option to open the associated JPEG file in a second "player" window.
3) Press Command-A and Command-C to copy the JPEG player content to memory and then close the player.
4) If not already active, re-select the MPEG-4 audio player and press Command-A to select all audio content.
5) Use the "Add to Selection & Scale" edit menu option to paste the JPEG image across the entire selected duration of audio.
6) You can save the audio video segment at this time if you wish.
7) Repeat steps 1 thru 6 as needed to create additional player segments.
8) Create a new player.
9) Open or select a previously create audio/video segment and paste it to the "new" player.
10) Repeat step 9 to order the segments to the new player as desired.
11) Use the "Save As..." File menu option to name and store the final movie.
While somewhat repetitive, the process of creating your movie is very easy to perform.

iMovie could be used but GarageBand might be easier to work with here. The basic work flow would be as follows:
1) Create a new GarageBand "Podcast" project.
2) Drag 'n Drop each of your audio tracks to the project window in their proper order. (They can be added as separate tracks if you want to "overlap" the audio or merged together as a single track with or without a break between audio segments.)
3) Add the individual JPEG files to the "podcast" track in their proper order and slide, stretch and/or shrink the duration of each JPEG display to match its associated audio segment.
4) Export the finished project to your desired compression format based on how you plan to use/distribute the content.
