Transitions

[ricksinanju]

I for one, want the transitions. Just have an option to turn them on or
off, then everyone is happy!

Hi,
I think transitions are just not necessary for a vcd slide show viewed on t
he tv. Yes quality will suffer and I prefer quality to transitions. In fact
with a reasonably long show I think they will become monotonous. So please
don't consider, just my opinion.
In fact I don't like music in the background on a tv slideshow, that can be
a distraction.

For transitions it would be nice to be able to select "Random, but not
these ones" For instance, I am not fond of the scroll that rolls up -
most other are great - but I don't want to go to manual transitions to
exclude that one.

Also the product referenced generated "dancing pixels" on still images
when it converts them to video and takes a very long time to render.

Its on the drawing board for the future. Obviuosly you can fake it with V by
selecting your favourite transitions.

MessageI agree but would not want to sacrifice quality to have them. If qua
lity was reduced then I would probably never use them

Hello John

It will be possible to have a slideshows with and without on the same CD so
users could choose

Hello Chris,
That sounds very good Chris, I know we are all different and have different
priorities. It sounds like you are all working hard and I still say your p
rogram is the BEST. I am so pleased with the quality of the tv images. Some
have mentioned keeping a copy of the original images on the vcd but I find
it is just as easy to keep them on a separate cd. They can use up a lot of
space. I have been using the Microtek film scan 35 which is very good afte
r settings adjustments, and that produces images in bmp of 12Mb. You would
only fit about 54 on a 650 cd. Probably best to convert to jpg after using
any enhancements and editing has finished.
Regards
John

I like having transitions. I do alot of work for Funeral Homes
producing "Tribute" presentations of the departed and all they are
wanting are just fades or what some call desolves. Of course I would
like to keep the quality with the fades but for now all I am using is
just cuts.

John, the mp3 was 4.6MB. Yes, there was one bmp. But I tried
another presentation with only 13 pictures and not go. Chris sent me
some info and I will check that out.

You and I are the direct opposite of presentations. Coming from Pic
To Exe I love using music for creativity and usually just disolves.

If I wanted to just show pictures with out music I would use Ifran
which can take any number of pictures and make a presentation with or
without music. But you can not make cd's or vcds. It is just a tool
but also you can touch of pictures and make them look good, bigger
and better.

I do my share of work for customers and by adding music and cuts or
fades gives the presentation a professional look.

Hi all,

I have just upgraded to the latest version of xatshow, and everything
is fine, except the transitions don't work with VCD, they work ok on
the pc, but not on my DVD player, I don't think it is my DVD, because
transitions work with another application I tried (Flyvcd ) so has
anyone else had this problem ?
Cheers
Ray.
