Now I am ready to add music to my
slideshow, so far so good. I am not confused and
happy with the little additions I can add to my slideshow
personalizing it without going overboard.
Once having added the music I want
to my slideshow doing just as I had done for adding pictures,
I see a nice little tool on the right
that allows me to listen to a selected audio track. I
realize that PhotoDVD is really an “all in one” program. I
do not have to open up something like Windows Media Player
just to hear certain pieces of music to see it they will
be the right fit to go with my pictures, all
I have to do is click the green arrow on the right side
of the screen. I am lovin’ it!
The numbers 1, 2, 3 on the bottom
of the screen represent audio channels. If I want
to create more than one soundtrack for my slideshow I can
do that too by clicking on “2” for example
and adding a whole new list of songs. For my slideshow
I have created a more up beat soundtrack to show to friends
during a party and a mellower track for me to show my slideshow
with to my colleagues at work.
Again, a nice little bar is shown
on the right to make sure that the length of my music corresponds
to the duration of my slideshow. This makes it easy
to work with my slideshow and not be deceived by a burned
DVD that could resemble who knows what if all they little
easy to read key features we not added.
Clicking on settings gives me more
options for PhotoDVD and for
my slideshow:
And
Except for the DVD Format screen
I have left all options set at the default setting as in
the past I have been happy with these settings and I always
want to see how good something will turn our before toying
with it. For DVD Format I changed the setting to
fit my personal material at home (NTSC and 16:9)
After applying this settings and
closing these windows I am back to the audio screen. As
I am finished there I click on “Next”.
Here I have the option to select
output format, select the burner I would like to use or
the location on my hard drive I would like my final project
to be stored at. I can also chose a Volume Label
and designate the target folder. I click on “Next”.
