Multiple transitions in one slide show

When using iDVD is there a way to apply transitions onto specific slides in a slideshow so that one slide show can have multiple transitions throughout? also is there a way to control the time of each specific time - ex one should be for 5 secs and the next for 3 secs?

You may want to consider an alternate app that specializes in slideshows.

Can you put multiple transitions on one slide??

I'm working on a storyboard for a iPhone app using MockApps templates. The whole presentation walks the user step by step on how my app will work. Its a interactive keynote where all the buttons have hyperlinks to the corresponding slides. Each of my slides has about 2 or 3 buttons each with a hyperlink pointing towards different slides. I figured out how to get the transitions from slide to slide. But is there a way to have a transition for the hyperlinks? So essentially I'll have three different transitions for three separate hyperlinks going to three different slides, but the three hyperlinks are in one slide.
It'll flow like this:
Slide 1 has three buttons, ButtonA ButtonB ButtonC (all buttons have been hyperlinked)
ButtonA takes you to Slide 2 using Perspective transition
ButtonB takes you to Slide 4 using Object Push transition
ButtonC takes you to Slide 7 using Revolve transition
Is that possible???
Thanks!

I suspect you'll need a custom question in that case. If there is only one correct answer, maybe you could try the Advanced Answer option that has a possible action.

Using more than one transition in a slide show

Is there any way to use more than one transition in a slide show?
Thanks,
Steve G.

I do not yet own iDVD8 but I do know that transitions w/in iDVD6 are applied globally (same transition for each image).
The only way around this that I know of is to use another app like DVDSP (which allows you to change individual transitions and durations as well).

Insert multiple images in one slide and setting dsiplay time for each

Hi,
I am using Adobe Captivate4.
I could not able to insert multiple images in one slide and set display time for each image.
Need help in this regard.

This is not about background image.
I have 3 images and want to insert in one slide only. I could able to insert image1 for first time, but could not able to insert image2 and image3.
I have followed the same steps: Insert Menu>Image.

Can I export (burn) more than one slide show to the same DVD

Can I export (burn) more than one slide show I created in iPhoto to the same DVD, and if yes, how?

Yes. If you're using iDVD export the slideshow out of iPhoto at 480p size and drag it into an open iDVD menu window, being careful to avoid any drop zones. iDVD can handle up to 120 minutes of playing time (movies plus menus) on a single layer DVD disk.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty 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.

Flickery transitions in iDVD slide show

I have burned two disks now using iDVD and had no trouble but I do have a question about transitions in slide shows. On the first disk I used a slide show (8 minutes, 99 images) with the “fit to music” option and the “use safe area” option for the display. The images were a little too small for my taste on my TV so I redid the show and unchecked the “safe” option. At the same time, I cut 9 of the slides but since I kept the “fit to music” option the timing was slightly slower. Fine, but I noticed that the dissolves between the images were “flickery” when compared to the first one on my TV. I had extracted the .dv of the first slideshow and included it on the second DVD so I could compare them directly and it’s true - they are smooth in the first but noticeably less so in the second, full screen, slideshow.
Has anyone else had this happen? Should I try to add nine more images back in? As it takes over an hour to burn this disk on my old, slow machine I'd rather ask first than attempt every possible variation on my own.
I can add that both disks were burned with the 60 minute “faster” rather than the 120 minute “better” quality mode. Since one doesn’t display the flickering I don’t really think the quality mode is relevant but who knows...

Hi Rick:
Matti Haveri (one of the top rated iLife members) has done tests on this subject. here are his results:
----quote:
Movie slideshows tend to flicker with high-frequency images while "soft" images are OK.
So I did a quick test to see how the input image's resolution and blurring affects the output quality of those high-frequency images.
Test material: some 2048x1536 digital camera JPG images that had a lot of very sharp edges (buildings, thin wires, construction work scenes etc -- i.e. "high-frequency" images). I converted them to TIF so that there was no lossy JPG degradation involved. I manipulated the images in Photoshop as follows:
1. original 2048x1536
2. original bicubically resampled to 768x576. I guess also iPhoto bicubically resamples; at least the results are very similar. On the other hand, I believe Graphic Converter does not have bicubic resampling so I haven't got as good results with it.
3. original bicubically resampled to 640x480
4. original with 90° (vertical) 3 pixel Motion Blur. The idea is to blur only the horizontal thin lines which flicker on an interlaced TV. The vertical lines are unaffected by this filter.
5. original with 1 pixel Gaussian blur. This blurs horizontally approximately as much as the 3 pixel Motion blur, but it blurs the image also vertically.
In iMovie's 4:3 PAL standard DV project (720x576) I applied to each image a) no Ken Burns and b) 1-5x zoomed 10 second Ken Burns. I did not let iMovie render the non-Ken Burns images while exporting the project to iDVD because that is a well-known source for bad quality.
I burned the project via iDVD's Best Performance to DVD and checked the result via an interlaced 28" CRT TV.
The results:
#1-5 were all sharp with no Ken Burns as well as with 1x zoomed Ken Burns. But the higher resolution non-blurred input images were, in fact, TOO sharp and thus flickered on a TV:
1. 2048x1536 flickered very badly with and without Ken Burns
2. 768x576 flickered slightly less but also very disturbingly
3. 640x480 flickered only little. But both #2-3 tolerated the 3-5x zoom very badly because the input resolution was so small. The zoomed-in image was too blurry and the details were lost.
4. Vertical Motion Blur didn't flicker at all. But during the zoom there was some disturbing "living" in the vertical lines. Obviously the vertical lines must be blurred, too:
5. Gaussian blur didn't flicker and the zooms were beautiful and peaceful. The Gaussian blur lost some fine detail in the zoomed-in image but the quality was very good. And the loss of fine detail is just a trade-off for the flickerless image.
In fact, I have had very similar results to #5 with Photo To Movie's High Quality setting. Also Toast's slideshows are of good quality. A lot of people have also been satisfied with Still Life and PhotoMagico.
Conclusions:
- iMovie should blur the images so they wouldn't flicker on a TV. Applying a small Gaussian blur to the input images seems like a good workaround.
- Using Photo To Movie, Toast, Still Life and PhotoMagico and other 3rd party utilities are good alternatives, too.

Unable to use transition options in slide show

I am unable to get the transition options to function properly on iPhoto 6. I always use the "effects" control box for each individual image, setting speed of transition and the picture's length of time on screen. The only one that works is the default/dissolve. The other transitions seem to work when I choose to set the slide show to music but that sets one transition for the entire slide show. Surprisingly, I sometimes can get those other options to work when I used the control at the bottom of the screen, the one right below my choice of converting the image to black and white or sepia. But it worked for the first few slides before it stopped. When I played the slide show, it defaulted to dissolve. When burn slide shows to iDVD, only dissolve transitions are enabled. How can I get the other transition options to work?

Have you tried deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, found in Users/Library/Preferences? First quit iPhoto, then delete the pref file, then restart and see if the problem resolves itself.

Demo of multiple questions on one slide

URGETNT::::
I need a link to multiple questions (like 5) on one slide and then be able to submit the responses to an e-mail address. Can someone please reply with a link asap before 11am (EDT) today? I need to show it for a presentation.
Thanks..

Hello,
Sorry but apparently we are living in different timezones, so missed your answer because I was in dreamland.
If you want to report to a LMS, you probably want to have a score for each of the questions on the slide. That is a problem with the default Question slides, because they are always scored black/white: only when all the answers are correct will the user gets a score, otherwise it will be 'zero'. Partial scoring is not possible with default Question slides. Please, if you have some time, fill in a feature request to have this functionality high on the priority list of the Adobe developers.
Two possibilities:
If you want to continue using the default Question slides, have each question on a different slide and try to make the experience for the user as fluent as possible.
Create your own question slides, using the standard objects, user variables and advanced actions. But I warn you: this gives you total control, it is possible to report to a LMS but it wil mean a lot more development time. If you are interested about this second approach, I have been publishing some articles about customizing quizzes. Some of them are mentioned in this blog post:

Play multiple video clips in slide show

I have 4 video clips (or I can do it in 1 movie) I want to have a menu screen with one of the themes. Then I want the viewer to be able to choose clip 1 and then play all the way through the other 3 clips in succession. Or I want them to be able to click clip 3 and then have it play clip 3 and then through to clip 4 and return back to the menu. So basically I would like to work like a standard movie DVD you purchase at a store. Is this possible?
I know you can put clips into slide shows (hence the title of this thread), but when I do that, it automatically starts to play through the clips. Is there a way to choose the slide show and then to give you the option in there to choose which clip your want, and then to play through the rest sequentially?

Here's a technique I like to use...
Create a shape -- It will be black and white where the white is what you want to show video. In the control tab of the shape you can change size/softness/location/aspect... etc.
Lay the video on the track above - Change the VIDEO track's composite mode to TravelMatte-Luma.
Use the video's motion tab viewer and image/wireframe in the canvas to center up the image you want.
Add another shape above that and then video track and change to TravelMatte-Luma etc.
The plus for this way is that you can change the video without have to reset all the croping and trying to match it all.

Can you use multiple songs for a slide show in iphoto ios 2.0?

I want to prepare a 10 minute slide show that uses more than one song. It seems you can use a playlist using iphoto for mac (and I have seen that in other discussion threads) but what about iphoto for IOS on an ipad? It seems to let me only use one song. I am on IOS7 and using the lastest iphoto for ipad (v 2.0)Any suggestions out there? Thanks

You are welcome. Have a look at the GarageBand Help to get started.
Basically you need to
Create a new project - select an empty project template.
Open the Media Browser and drag the songs from your iTunes playlist into the track area.
Use the "Share" menu to send your new sound track to iTunes.
This screenshot is from GarageBand 10.0, but in GarageBand '11 it would be similar.
Just in case that you want to add some sound effects to the soundtrack, like rain or thunder, you will find the clips in the Loop Browser:
Good luck for your slideshow

Transition selection for slide show.

Photoshop Album Starter edition 3.2 Windows XP. I could create custom slide show. I can still select duration of each slide but the transition period and transition mode fails. Shows error code c0000005, address 60cbb2af. Any idea what to do?

Hi Evert,
Can you tell me two things:-
1) Which slideshow you are talking about - PDF slideshow or FullScreen Slideshow.?
2) Where is option to customize slideshow is present.
I do not see anty option in PASE 3.2 to customize slideshow like setting of transition period and transition mode etc.

How can I create a collage of multiple photos on one slide using Premiere Elements 4.0?

Hi all!
I recently bought Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0. I'm having trouble with something and was wondering if anyone could offer any assistance?
I'm creating a slideshow using photos and videos, but with my photos I want to be able to create a few collages, by using multiple photos on the one slide. Usually you just have one photo on the screen and it moves on to the next one, but I'd like to have eg. the occassional slide that I can have say 4 photos overlapping onto each other, like a photo collage. Does this make sense and does anyone know how I can do this? I've searched the instructions and can't figure it out and the Adobe support line said they couldn't tell me but pointed me to this forum...
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks :)

There are basically two ways, with a variation, to do this.
First, you could size the still images in Photoshop, or other, for the size needed on your Project's screen and then use Motion to position the image where you want it. The variation on this would be to use Motion>Scale to size the image and then Motion to place it where you wanted. You would stack the images on various Video Tracks as necessary.
The other way would be to place the images on the correct Video Track and use the Track Matte to limit the view of that image. You will probably use one of the two variations from the first way (Motion>Scale and/or Motion) to get the image where you want it, but then the Track Matte (building in Titler is easy) to eliminate any extraneous image data.

Submenu transitions & Drop zone Slide Shows

Two items:
Has anyone else run into these issues?
1) Submenu transitions don't work properly in preview mode.
2) When adding images for a slide show in a drop zone pane, the images are supposed to cycle--but mine don't unless I start fiddling with the loop time--which is not adequatley explained in the documentation.
G5 Dual Core 2.3 Mac OS X (10.4.6)
G5 Dual Core 2.3 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Cycling does occur based upon the loop time chosen.

How to apply multiple songs to a slide show?

How do I install more than one song in a slide show of 439 photos

You have to combine all songs into one file by using software, for example Audacity.
PS: I owe this knowledge to a post by Victoria Bampton.

Is it possible to add multiple songs to a slide show?

Hi there.
A slide show can be quite long as you all know and the same music continusly repeated can become boring.
Is it possible to add several songs to the slide show to overcome this problem?
Regards.

One thing you can do to make it all turn out even--think about how long each slide is going to display, say you want about 3 seconds per slide, multiply by the number of slides, say you have 100 slides (I picked those numbers so the arithmetic would be easy!). That's a total of 300 seconds. Divide by 60 seconds per minute to get the number of minutes, in this case that would be 5 minutes. Then when you make your playlist in iTunes find music that fits the mood of the show and that totals a little more than 5 minutes (and is NOT Protected, as Terence mentioned). Back in iPhoto select your Playlist in the Music section and then check the box to have the slideshow fit the music, and iPhoto will adjust the display time so that everything runs the same length of time. Export to iDVD and burn your disk.
Personally, I like to get a little fancier, so I export my slideshow without sound, then open the project in iMovie HD and make a layered soundtrack, where I arrange the music and sound effects, as in this one:
http://homepage.mac.com/francines/.Movies/kenstr.html
It has the music, plus a coffee gurgle, birds tweeting, page flips and a lion roar at the end. Once it's built you can send it to iDVD at full size and/or, as I did here, make a small streaming web version to share over the Internet. I wrote up a VERY short tutorial on this (notes from a workshop I ran) and put it up here:
http://pinkmutant.com/smug/psws06/bling.html
Afraid I haven't worked that much with iMovie 08, but I believe you can do something along the same lines.
