Not sure where I got the 48,000kbps.... I was intending to refer to the video, but I still got it wrong. (see attached screen capture) Can't trust these luddites :rolleyes:/>/> :rolleyes:/>/> Thanks for the offer of advice. I'm OK now, but if I hit an issue you can be sure I will be back. The forum has always been a great place to talk and resolve issues.

Thanks Lin I hadn't discovered the "Custom" feature yet in PTE. I'll read the reference you gave me and try to understand it all better. Muchly appreciated !! Jim

Question re the bitrate in the MP4 file. It seems to be just under 5500kbps. Is this the highest that is achievable ? My camera outputs video at 48,000kpbs. I am by no means knowledgeable in this techie stuff, but it is being suggested to me that the higher the bitrate the better. I am having no issues playingback on my computer, but just wondering.... Thanks Jim

Wonderful control, great job Thanks Lin and Jean

Bill: I just rec'd a notice for a new show all seems to be OK Thx Jim

Thanks Bill: Took me a few minutes to find it all, but I see my email notification was not "ticked", only the Notification list was ticked. I ticked the e-mail options and I'll let you know if it all works in due course. Could have sworn I had rec'd one notification, but I guess I was dreaming... Thx again Jim

I seem to have the same issue, although it did notify me once

Yup there it is. Thanks Ken I hadn't selected the SLIDE SHOW category, I was sitting on ALL CATEGORIES........ Easy when you know where to look

Gary and Davegee: Guess I'm getting a little bit blind, where do you see "Follow this category" ?? Thanks Jim

Bill Congratulations! You have done an extraordinary job over the years for us all. The time and dollars you invested on our behalf was MUCHLY appreciated. Thank you is not enough, but I guess it will have to do. Jim

Nicely done Jeff. As Ken says nice transitions between images and smooth entrance and exit to video component. Videos were handled nicely and were just the right mix. The music worked well too. I've used some of the music for my shows - it was VERY familiar :) What ship were you on when your circumnavigated Iceland ?

Nicely done Peter

Nicely done Lin ! And it downloaded without a blip for me this time !! :lol:

Nicely done Barry. Carefully synched to the music.

Yup, that'll do !! :P BTW both files downloaded lickety-split unlike the last one !

Nicely done Lin !! (I like Ken's trout idea - I was thinking along the lines of someone (out of sight) dropping a stone in the still water and concentric circles emanating from the centre of the drop. :rolleyes: )

Maureen: Just sent you a note.... Beautifully done in all aspects Thanks for sharing

Downloaded in 5 seconds !!! Hurrah ! The storm must have cleaned out all the plugged collections from a few days ago. Thanks for the show. Jim

Very nicely done Gilio

Nicely done Don

Great show and wonderful images from the Hebrides How did you get around on the Islands?? I understand you took the ferry to get to the islands, but did you walk (a lot) to get the images ?

Great show Maureen. As Bill says beautiful weather for you. Wonderful subjects for photography. I am always amazed at how (on the surface anyway) well healed places are that had been so heavily damaged.

Thanks Ken. Not sure it was that good but my hat no longer fits when you give me comments like that !!

Bill Hines kindly uploaded the fifth in an African Slide show series http://www.beechbrook.com/pte/ When one comes back from three safari with '000's of pictures and don't want to bore your viewers with picture after picture of the same type of animal in a slightly different setting et al, you have to try to come up with something different.... Hope you enjoy it.

Thanks Colin. Kruger certainly is a great place. There'll be another show uploaded to Beechbrook in due course featuring the "Big 5"
