Probably the best idea would be to combine the songs into one mp3 file-- unless you want to change songs at a particular slide.There is plenty of software out there that will let you do that.KeithOn 06/10/11 14:35, ycor wrote:Hello, Tom. I downloaded the complete list of guides from there earlier today. I have at least got the song so that it will play through rather than restarting with each slide. It is much better than the included help with the program - by far. Now I just have to figure out how to insert another couple of songs behind the first one. Roxy
Hi :) I am not sure documentation will help but it might be good to skim through ithttp://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation#LibreOffice_Impress_GuideSorry i can't really help!

I've used Power Point quite a bit in the past, and in actuality Impress has a ways to go to get "up to par". Now if I can figure out how to make it transition from one song to another - which I would think should be easier than trying to figure out how to get the slides into a video. Although, I think I've seen somewhere where that was done. I also know that some PP presentations I get sent sometimes don't play the audio/song that I know is supposed to be there. So there is some obvious differences. Roxy Hi Roxy, I've used Impress and Power Point very, very little. I'm sorry I couldn't be of better help here. Good Luck!!!!!!!

They all use the same base slide with thenamestyped in one the slides. I did just find some help within Impress that, I think, is what I'm looking to do. Now I just have to go back and "re-time" each slide, as some where along the way I must have inadvertently hit the "Apply to All Slides" button on a 4 second slide. So, we live and learn. I hope I don't do that again. Roxy � � � Hi Roxy, I'm 95% Linux (Ubuntu), but part of the 5% left in windows is my video editing program, which is Ulead. Te current version is called Corel Video Studio I believe. Instead of capturing video to edit, I can just put in pictures from my hard drive. The reason I still do this in Windows is that I have about 300 songs I've purchased over the years from smartsound.com so I can legally use it on the Internet, and it is very easy to integrate the songs into the video. Here is a link for the 2011 Ag Progress Days Slide Show so you can see what it looks like doing it this way:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWJ-xoG0OhUThis will help you know whether this method would work for you. You could use larger pictures than I did. I wanted this to work for people on slow connections also.

It is a listing, if you will, of the deceased alumni fromthesmall high school where I graduated. It currently starts with the class of 1919 and runstothe present. In most cases one slide contains each class, though there are some classesthatcover 2 pages. I have 3 or 4 songs I'd like to use while the presentation is running -onestarting when the previous completes. And then starting back with the first one again.I'mnot sure how that would transfer over into a video program.

But something I have done is to make slide shows in my video editing program by using pictures instead of actual video, and then adding narration and background music. It worked quite well.
