to each one - as they appeared in the yearbooks.

I inserted all the photos scanned from the yearbooks into Powerpoint, then I added names, etc. Then, wanted to give the same slideshow as a DVD to all attending so they can watch it on their TV or PC when they return home.

I am planning to show the slideshow at the reunion. (I can't see anyone doing that with 300 images.)Ĭan you give me more information about just what you want to do? If you want to narrate it live, you can use the Slide Show Assistant that you can burn to a DVD and then use a DVD remote to play it one slide at a time. This is great for unattended viewing people watch it and then can see it out of the corner of their eye the rest of the evening and discuss the pictures. If you make the DVD without a menu, it will repeat until you shut if off. What do you intend to do with the slide show other than make the DVD? If you are going to show the DVD at a gathering, you can rent a projector that will play and project the slide show on a screen. I had assumed that 90+% of the images you were going to use were pictures. My reply was giving you an alternate to converting the Power Point presentation to a DVD. So if I want to do Videowave - save all the slides (300) as jpg's? In both Video Wave (which you probably have if you are posting here) and in PhotoShow, you can mix video and images. No, I am not in all those pictures the person who had the camera take them and no, I am not the fisherman. Here is an example of a PhotoShow from the reunion and here is a different one of my favorite place. No, I don't work for Roxio but doing the reunion this way saved me a lot of time. You can get 720 high definition if you want. You can post links to it and you can burn DVD from it via either a download of the mp4 file or simply by making a PhotoShow with the desktop version. You can add text on the images and upload your own music. I just did 4 Photo Shows for my 50th reunion. If you do this slide shows reasonably frequently, look at PhotoShow premium membership (fee per year). Just curious, unless you are doing slide show "builds", why are you making a Power Point Slide Show? Why not do a Video wave project? You can add transitions, narration, overlays (sort of like builds) and your own music. What conversion program do you recommend?
