Pro Show Web only takes MP3 unfortunately. Pro Show Web is very straightforward; add photos/videos, add music from the Pro Show Web music library or add your own (MP3), choose slide effects and transitions, make a text slide if you want, choose Auto/Custom energy level and hit the build button.
To add more creativity to the 'mix' I use Photoshop CS4 on my images
Debbie, what program were you talking about when you mentioned adding sound to a slide? That sounds like just what I need but I don't think my Mac has such a program. When I open an image it opens in Preview.
I do have Producer but I am still learning. Add to that... having to get used to Windows and how it uses folders has slowed me down a lot.
It just seemed odd that my audio clip was
just the way I wanted it until I downloaded it into Pro Show Web -
it was only then that it looped - not in freesound.org as I said and not in iTunes but in Pro Show Web. Of course that doesn't matter because ProShow Web didn't actually add the audio clip anyway. Maybe
because it was looping is why.
I had a similar problem with a Christmas video that I did. I had a short video clip at the start of my show, along with an audio clip. It worked great, then came the photos with the slide effects and transitions. I added a MP3 that I found on the web for that and then at the very end I had a short audio clip of Santa Claus laughing.
Very thing came out great except - my MP3 song stopped short of it's ending and the Santa Claus audio clip never worked.
So it seems that ProShow Web gets a little 'grumpy' when I add audio clips.
I spoke to ProShow about my Christmas video and the person helping me made several suggestions, all of which I tried - rebuilding my show several times but it never worked the way I had hoped it would. I finally gave up and accepted the fact that 'it is what it is'.
I have great expectations for ProShow Producer once I understand Windows better
I am so amazed and
grateful for everyone here on ProShow Enthusiasts. Every time I ask a question I get an answer
Which is really something because that doesn't happen on a lot of other forums out there. So thank you everyone for being so helpful. I'm sure I'm going to be asking a lot of questions as I learn Producer. I'm glad to know that there is help out there
