PTE SlideShow Problems

[nickles]

I often produce menued slideshows on CD. Oftentimes anxious end-users give a menu item multiple clicks that results in the slideshow running in multiple instances concurrently. Is there a way to prevent this? The user thinks their is a problem when they here multiple soundtracks that are out of sink.

Nickles:

I had the same problem just last night doing a presentation to a medium sized group. I should know better as I do many showings a year, but my mind absentmindedly just let the fingers click twice.

On shows that I give to people to run on their own, I stick a large note on the screen wehere they click to ClICK ONLY ONCE.

I seem to recall that we asked IGOR to make some changes in the sofatwre that would only have a shoiw run once, despite how many times we clicked

I hope it is still on his "to do" list.

For now, you can use the Boxig's utility "Don't Run Twice", very effective and useful.
