John C Posted March 12, 2003 Report Share Posted March 12, 2003 Finished a show with 156 slides. Slides, titles, and music.I hit 'Preview' and it works fine until maybe the fourth to last slide. Screen blacks out, music continues. If I hit the 'space bar', the slide show starts and finishes up. I have never had this happen before. Help!John C.

JRR Posted March 12, 2003 Report Share Posted March 12, 2003 John:By any chance have you got an overlapping of transition and duration times. Check the gray line on the timeline.Or by chance is the image it chokes on a larger sixe (pixel or kb) than the others ??I assume you are running off the C drive, not a CD.Hope it is that simple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very helpfulWent back, checked it out, adn everything OK.Turned the music off, and still get the blackout on the screen.I am using ver.4.. I have re-downloaded my pics for the slide show, literally started all over adn still the same problem.Its a puzzlement.However, tell me about 'custom sync'. I do not use that.John C.Thanks for all the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRR Posted March 13, 2003 Report Share Posted March 13, 2003 John:I know we have asked before, but it is so strange , are you sure it is not your screen saver ? Try moving your mouse halfway though the show.Any way to do the custom synching:Add your imagesAdd your music (PROJECT OPTIONS > MUSIC > add)To custom synch:1. PROJECT OPTIONS > MAIN > tick on "Synchronize Slide Show to Music"2. Click on CUSTOMIZE SYNCHRONIZATION...3. Click on 2nd bullet from top: CUSTOMIZE SYNCHRONIZATION4. Click on PLAY and click on "new transitions" where you want a new slide in beat with the music. Don't worry if it is not exact, you can easily adjust them later.Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
