Video slideshow

I have a presentation of 20 slides. Each slide contains a full screen video of various durations I want to run the presentation in a loop, so once I hit play on slide 01 it plays it's movie for the full duration, then advances automatically to the slide 02 which automatically plays the second movie for it's duration, then to slide 03 ... etc.
I can't seem to work out how to tell KN, to automatically wait for the movie to end before advancing to the next slide.
I can manually set a duration of seconds, but that means manually getting the duration of eacch movie and setting it in the 'wait for' duration. Surely that's not necessary ... ?

iPhoto I suppose would be simplest.
Just go to Slideshows and drag your photos and videos. You can rearrange them, decide on a lot of parameters. Without any work you can come up with something really nice.

When exporting a video slideshow to my desktop it will start and then just end with no progress so I have to cancel it.

When exporting a video slideshow to my desktop it will start and then just end with no progress so I have to close it out. I get no warnings or any explanations. Any ideas? I am running Windows 7. No problem viewing it in LR. Thanks

Found out LR wasn't stopping but slowed way down. For 19 pictures, no video and no sound it took over 6 Hrs to export. Does anyone have any ideas to help this? Thank You.

Image order of video slideshow

I created a photoshop.com video slideshow of an album I created in Photoshop Elements 10. The slideshow played the images in a completely different order than the original album. How can I make the slideshow order match the original album?

Slide show sorting:
No, Mylenium, you are definitly wrong, You can choose any image order you want within slideshows:
1. Make thumbnail temporarily visible and drag the thumnail to the position you want.
or
2. Identify the slides in layers panel and drag their panel entries to the position you want.
Accordion panel:
You can choose whatever size you want – even with a slideshow within:
You have to make sure, that all element of the slideshow (caption, prev, next, counter) fit within the accordion panel. And – since the single accordeon panels don’t allow individual sizes – you have to make sure, that the content of every(!) accordeon panel does not exceed the size you want.

Creating a Flash Video Slideshow

I was wondering if there was a tutorial somewhere on how to create a flash video slideshow similar to this website: http://slideshowpro.net/video/slideshowpro_for_flash#num=891929&id=album-42765 . Frankly, I don't even know if that's the correct term for it. The idea is to have one skin (Flash Player) on the site that plays videos with a list of various videos to choose from below. Furthermore, it should play it like switching channel on a TV, like on the site above, not like on YouTube or Metacafe (where a new page opens up with the video). This would be kind of like switching channels on a TV. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

New Mac/APE 12 user Used to have Cyberlink Powerdirector 9 for video/slideshow editing. HELP!

I have recently purchased APE 12 to help with editing a slideshow. Previously I used Cyberlink Powerdirector 9 on my PC. At this point I am very disappointed in the money I spent. There is so much less I can do with the structure of the slideshow. My questions are to see if I am missing something.
1) On PowerDirector I had several options on the type of slideshow I wanted, movement, scrapbook, photo album, 3-D and more, I only see the option for Pan and Zoom on APE 12 and even that is hard to figure out. Am I missing something?
2) Am I understanding that once I put a still image on the Timeline I can only change the duration one image at a time? Is there any way to select a group of images to edit?
3) I may have this one figured out, after searching and reading a lot, but Is there an easy way to fade out volume to make transitions smooth? I have had success, but more failure and struggle to find out what is working.
4) Why does APE 12 move stuff if I add something on another track? Can I lock the video track so it won't do that?
Thanks a bunch!!

Premiere Elements can help you create a slideshow with numerous effects, including pan and zoom, but it is a video editor rather than a slideshow generator. It is not going to give you choices of slideshows. But, I guess you could look at the Instant Movie Feature as sort of a counterpart of what you were using previously.
http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-elements/using/instant-movies.html
If your program is on Windows, you have slideshow opportunities in the Elements Organizer as well as the Premiere Elements workspace. On Mac, there is no slideshow feature in the Elements Organizer as there is the Windows counterpart.
If you are in the Expert workspace, you can change the duration of more than one clip at a time - See Time Stretch Tool after you select (altogether) the clips whose duration is to be changed.
And, there is no lock track feature. On Windows, one holds down the Alt key of the computer main keyboard as an addition is made to the Timeline so has not to disturb the content already there.
Click the More on the Transition Adjustments pop up. Also look to the transition alignment and duration in relation to the duration of the clips involved.
Also consider that you will be running into several Windows Only features.
Please review and consider.
Thank you.

How to create a video slideshow in Adobe Muse

Hello there,
I'm new to Muse and have a general question about creating a slideshow using videos instead of images. More specifically, if my videos live on an external site (youtube or vimeo, for example). In an ideal situation, I will see thumbnails of each video within the Slideshow grid. When one is clicked, the go into Slideshow mode and the video starts playing. 'Next' or 'Previous' buttons act as navigation to play other videos. Really, I'd like the Slideshow widget to do exactly what it does with images, just with videos.
Thoughts?
I'm running the latest version of Muse CC on a beefed out Mac with Snow Leopard.
Thanks in advance,
Matt

Hello,
You can try the following work around with composition:-
1) Add a you tube video to the page.
2) Drag the video to the target of composition widget.
3) Resize the video to have the size of the target.
The triggers can have the images related to the videos so as to act as thumbnails for videos.

Neha

I'm DESPERATE: How do I place a new object (text, video, slideshow, picture) on a Parralaxing page and have it stick in place??

How to save a video/slideshow project on my PC in a format that is still editable in elements?

I'm trying to save a file as a back-up so I need to save it to my PC in a file format that is editable in elements 8

Simply save the project file from the slideshow editor interface, after adding your video and stills.
To find your saved projects type PSESS into the Organizer search bar.

Viewing a video / slideshow, consecutively on fith generation ipod

I have seen an ipod and a monitor/tv displaying the same images / video simultaneously. I want to do the same. What combination of ipod/cables/tv/monitor/Computer(?)/configuration do I need to do the same?
Connecting my ipod 80gb to my tv only displays on one device.
How do I make both devices display the same at the same time?
bronze laptop, ipod video 80gb, lots of PC's, Apple server, 8100's, my first computer was a dell 316sx with a 20mb hard drive and 750k extended memory!!

I found out how it works...
A slideshow was produced in iMovie. The movie was transfered to the iPod, the iPod was powered by the monitor via usb, both the computer playing the slideshow and the iPod were synched so that they independantly were showing the same frames.
There was no physical mirroring at all, it was all done with mirrors
Can I run iMovie on my G3 laptop ?

Custom frame around video slideshow in Dreamweaver

I'm working on a website that features a scrolling slideshow below the banner on the main page. I've created a custom frame graphic that I would like to place around the video to give the slideshow a border instead of just floating out in space. I have tried unsuccessfully to add the image as a div tag background image, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Of course lol, that would help. The area in question is the main banner slideshow section.

Video Slideshow Creation in iMovie (Ken Burns Effect)

I'm trying to create a slideshow video in iMovie. The process seemed pretty straight forward, and seemed to be going nicely. I got all the images imported into iMovie and added the music to the timeline as I wanted. When I previewed my results though, I was less than pleased.
After viewing the preview, the Ken Burns effect was the exact same zoom/pan for every picture--it wasn't randomizing the effect like it does when you do a slideshow from within iPhoto or Front Row. Any way to get it to randomize the effect? There's just way to many pictures in this compilation (250+) to go through and change it up a bit for each.
At this point, I figured I'd just go with the slideshow export feature in iPhoto since it does randomize the Burns effect. Yeah, that didn't go so hot either. Apparently, you can only add one music track, so I had to find a utility to combine the MP3s we were going to be using. Looked like this was going to work until we played it after the (LONG!) export process. Turns out, the slideshow somehow ended up a whole four minutes shorter than what I had in iMovie. Apparently the default transition speed of 5 seconds does not hold true to iPhoto slideshows. Plus, much to my surprise there is absolutely no fade-out in the music at the end--it just abrubtly stops. Not cool.
There's got to be a way to make that (very cool) Ken Burns effect randomize in iMovies I'd think. Any suggestions?

Although you cannot permanently remove the Ken Burns effect option, you can set your default to having it off.
You need to apply your settings to a particular photo and then the changes should be the new default.
Drag any photo into the timeline. Select 'show photo settings' and deselect KB effect and update that photo.
Close or hide photo settings. Click on something else. If you don't want the photo in your timeline, delete it.
When you open the 'show photo settings' again, your recent changes should be there.
If this process does not work for you, try deleting iMovie's preference file.
With iMovie closed, go to your Home file(YourUserName)/Library/Preferences/com.apple.imovie.plist
Drag this plist file to the trash. iMovie will create a new one when you reopen it.
Reopen iMovie.

Creating a video slideshow with audio

Ladies & Gentledudes,
I have some recorded lecture notes (basically the lecture on digital
dictaphone), and also the Powerpoint or .pdf slides that go with the
lecture. I can seperate these slides out into raster images if needed
(eg use Grab to get them as .tiffs).
What software would you consider is the best/most effective to combine
them to create a video slide show of the Powerpoint slides to match
with the audio lecture notes that I have recorded? I would ideally
like to be able to view it through my iPod touch.
At the moment I can only think of using Garageband to clean up the
audio (although not 100% on how to do that), and then use iMovie to
create an audio slideshow.
If you know of a free solution (or one that comes preloaded on a Mac)
that would be preferred, but I would also like to hear optimum and most effective
solutions as well if there is a cost involved.
Many thanks for your time and help, James

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
iMovie is a very straightforward way to do this.
Import your sound and your images, stitch them together and then export them in an iPod compatible format.
Job done.

What to use to create a picture and video slideshow/presentation?

I was curious as to what someone would use in order to create a picture and video presentation/slideshow?
I think that iPhoto does a good job with getting all your pictures in order, and then using the templates and choosing your music to create a slideshow. However, if one wanted to include some video and narration into the slideshow, I imagine that they would need to use iMovie as well.
I know that you can drop images into iMovie as well, and I think they are automatically given Ken Burns effect, but if you have a lot of images, I think it gets pretty tedious working with all those photos, when iPhoto will already do all of that for you.
So, long story short. I would like to make a presentation with video and images. I would like to use multiple songs, and possible trim the amount of each particular song down, so there is some sort of mix/flow from one song to the other. I would also like to be able to record a narration and include it in the slideshow. I know that iMovie does a lot of that...I saw the narration feature, and the ability to trim the songs back some, and include more than one song. It also has the ability to choose only the portion of video that I want. So would you pre-create the photo portion of your slideshow in iPhoto, convert it to a movie, and dump it into iMovie? That seems clunky.
What process would you use? In my mind, I picture using a program that had some sort of timeline in order to be able to fine tune the audio and video, and iMovie has a timeline of sorts.
Currently running iLife '09.

I've been working for the last three weeks on a project like the one you describe. It turns out to be far beyond my limited competence, but I'm committed and have to trudge on.
Mine may be a little different from yours in that it has the equivalent of 106 "slides." There are twenty video. The "stills" are either text I've made in Word and saved to iPhoto as a pdf doc or photos. I've engaged actors to read the text that goes with most of still-slides. I thought I could create individual slides with the sound 'attached,' string them together and then make a movie out of the Power Point or Keynote slide show.
Nothing has worked so far.
iMovie has been a special heartbreaker. I've had at least a half-dozen chats with Apple Care and a couple of trips to an Apple Store to solve one challenge after another.
I can help with Ken Burns. Tedious is not a strong enough word, and the 'help' menu is not helpful, because it is Wrong., The controls are NOT the least bit intuitive. In fact, they make no sense - at least to me.
[I gave up on iMovie the first time because of Ken and the absence of intelligible instructions to make him leave.]
(1) Not finding the control. "Help" says to click on the crop icon on the tool bar (between mic and i) or to type "C". All I get is the crop function - Ken is nowhere to be seen.
(2) Finding it. The crop icon that should have been designated is accessible when you select a still photo. The hand icon appears; on the left side there is column of three icons. On top is Crop; the middle is the duration for the still - the default default is "4 s" // the bottom icon is the gear. Click the gear; there are four rows of choices; click the one at the bottom "cropping, Ken Burns & Rotation". At the top left corner there are three boxes "fit | crop | Ken Burns"// select "Fit" and Ken Burns is turned off. Why is "fit" is the opposite of "Ken Burns"? I don't know.
Here's a warning and a sad tale. I spent about three days getting the first 64 still/videos/transitions and audio clips assembled the way I wanted them.The audio for 65 went in okay and it looked okay, but nothing would make it play. 66 was okay but not 67 or any subsequent attempt - although the videos after 67 were okay.
During my final Apple Care conversation the diagnosis was: "corruption." Start over again with a new project!
I could select, copy and paste the visuals in those three moves, but the audios had to go over one at a time. Since you can't have two projects going at the same time, I'd have to copy one audio clip from the old project, select the new project and wait for it to come up, make the paste, and then wait for the old project to come up.
So watch out. I gave up on iMovie because the recreation of a new project would be so agonizing and with such a big project, I don't know how to avoid "corruption" for sure, and neither did the guy at Applecare. I switched to iPhoto, but after a day I realize that it's audio capability requires a process as tedious as trying to redo the iMovie.
Final Cut Pro is probably the right program but that's a whole other thing.
