Slideshow Photoshow Gold Photodex Question

[johnny_boy]

Anyone have any experience with Photodex's Photoshow gold? I am using the trial and getting choppy video problems. I have tried it on two different good machines. Same problem. I really like this for slideshows, but want what I pay for. So far, their support has been terrible and I can't find a support forum anywhere. It is making the paltry 69.00 look like a lot of money with NO support. Maybe it is because I have the trial version. I don't know.

is it choppy when you view it on your PC or viewing it on a DVD

[johnny_boy]

Hmmm...haven't tried it on DVD. Thanks. I'll do that and see. But so far, I have only tried on the PC.

I was just trying to find out what stage you were viewing it at,

i dont think it would play any better if you put it on DVD

[Sifaga]

whats your output from ProShow Gold,

DVD, VCD, or video file ?

[johnny_boy]

I finally got on to come out right. It was an .avi first, though. The other one that I initially wrote about was an mpeg-2 file. Maybe it has to be .avi first.

How did you get proshow gold to output an .avi file?

I know that the last time I used Photoshow Gold, when I wanted to use music for the background sound, I had to use mp3 files. It had problems with other audio files.

I have used ProShowGold for a long time and it works fine. They had bugs, but worked them out. Use mp3, as wav is too much data, especially in long slide shows.
