interrupt music

Hi Betsy,

The simplest way to shorten a piece of music is to use a sound editor program (such as Audacity - which is a free program available for download here: http://audacity.sourceforge.net) and apply a fade out over the last 5-10 seconds of the piece that you want to use.

PTE does not currently support any form of manipulation of a sound file.

regards,

Peter

Betsy,

In addition to Peter's and Tom's recommendations ... its also possible to stop the music currently playing at a certain slide without actually editing the music file.

Its somewhat an abrupt way for stopping music in a slideshow ... but it works.

- Select the slide where you want the music to stop playing and open the Customize Slide | Music tab. Enable the Play New Background Music checkbox without adding any music files to the music playlist. See attached image below.

- To restart the music at a certain slide ... follow above instructions, but this time with adding a music file to the music playlist. Please note that the music will start from its beginning and not from the point it was last stopped.

Note:

This method also works for DVD builds/playback.
