Slideshow with variable times

Question

I've got an audio track (spoken) that I'd like to combine with photos at appropriate times. I do not want an approach with n seconds per picture. I may have a photo for a minute or two, followed by several very quickly.
Is iDVD the right tool for this? (If not, what is the better tool?)

Answer 1

First of all, you should NEVER use nested functions - they are a recipe for disaster.
To start you with, the following code should accomplish the same thing as your original one. It will not do everything you intend but, again, it is something to begin with (code is more compact and more manageable):
myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loading);
myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loaded);
prev_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, imageProgression);
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, imageProgression);
function imageProgression(e:MouseEvent):void
     clickSound.play();
     preLoader.visible = true;
     if (e.currentTarget == prev_btn) {
          imageCount--;
     else {
          imageCount++;
     myLoader.load(new URLRequest(imageCount + ".jpg"));
function loading(e:ProgressEvent):void
     var loaded:Number = e.bytesLoaded / e.bytesTotal;
     preLoader.SetProgress(loaded);
function loaded(e:Event):void
     close_btn.visible = true;
     preLoader.visible = false;
     var tweenAlpha:Tween = new Tween(myLoader, "alpha", None.easeOut, 0, 1, 10, false);
     myLoader.x = 0;
     myLoader.y = 0;
     addChild(myLoader);
