AviSynth Photo slideshow

[chi1234]

Is the AviSynth a good program to create a photo slideshow

The end result I want to keep the images (3648*2736 6meg) still as high as possible

I was using windows movie maker and got 720*576
Using AviSynth i got 3648*2736 so higher quailty

Being a AviSynth beginner just wondering how to increase the length an image is displayed
And anything else i should know... fading etc

Ok so far ive have just got the simple code

ImageSource("IMG_00%02d.jpg", 3, 11, 0.2)

Loads in my images and displays each for 5 sec..

Now am trying to figure an easy way to fade (or something) between each image....

As far as I know, there is no easy to do what you want. You'll have to load each pic individually as explained in the Dissolve link above, and apply each transition individually.

You may be happier using a slideshow program. There are a bunch of them, and maybe check out the guides here:

I put the photos in the midle of video scenes fading one into other like this:

video = AudioDub(DirectShowSource("SANY1685.MP4", fps=29.97, pixel_type="YV12"), WavSource("Bells.wav")) # add custom audio to intro video
video = Dissolve(video, ConvertToYV12(AudioDub(ImageSource("SANY1728a.JPG" , end=200, fps=29.97, pixel_type="RGB24"), WavSource("Silence 6 s.wav"))),185) # add video title
video = Dissolve(video, Trim(DirectShowSource("SANY1730.MP4", fps=29.97, pixel_type="YV12"),119,298),15) # fade title into next clip
video = video ++ Trim(DirectShowSource("SANY1731.MP4", fps=29.97, pixel_type="YV12"),97,350) # other clips
video = video ++ Trim(DirectShowSource("SANY1732.MP4", fps=29.97, pixel_type="YV12"),0,694)
video = video ++ Trim(DirectShowSource("SANY1733.MP4", fps=29.97, pixel_type="YV12"),0,0)
video = video ++ Trim(DirectShowSource("SANY1735.MP4", fps=29.97, pixel_type="YV12"),0,2800)
video = video ++ Trim(DirectShowSource("SANY1738.MP4", fps=29.97, pixel_type="YV12"),663,913)
video = video ++ Trim(DirectShowSource("SANY1745.MP4", fps=29.97, pixel_type="YV12"),1241,1406)
video = video ++ Trim(DirectShowSource("SANY1745.MP4", fps=29.97, pixel_type="YV12"),1562,1650)
video = Dissolve(video, ConvertToYV12(AudioDub(ImageSource("SANY1752a.JPG" , end=90, fps=29.97, pixel_type="RGB24"), WavSource("Silence 1 s.wav"))),30) # short slide show, pics stay 60secs, fade in 30 secs
video = Dissolve(video, ConvertToYV12(AudioDub(ImageSource("SANY1758a.JPG" , end=90, fps=29.97, pixel_type="RGB24"), WavSource("Silence 1 s.wav"))),30)
video = Dissolve(video, ConvertToYV12(AudioDub(BicubicResize(ImageSource(" SANY1760.JPG", end=90, fps=29.97, pixel_type="RGB24"),1920,1080), WavSource("Silence 1 s.wav"))),30)
video = Dissolve(video, ConvertToYV12(AudioDub(BicubicResize(ImageSource(" SANY1761.JPG", end=90, fps=29.97, pixel_type="RGB24"),1920,1080), WavSource("Silence 1 s.wav"))),30)
video # return video
PointResize(1920/2,1080/2) # downsample for preview
