Andy’s first birthday”). In advanced software versions, after typing the
text caption, select the foreground/background color of the caption text
as well as set the duration that it is displayed. The duration selection bar
is relative to time that photo is displayed (sliding the duration selection
bar all the way to the right selects the longest caption duration).
6.5.8.2 Audio Clip for Stereo Speakers
This feature is only on the MF-810S stereo model.
For each image you
can associate a WAV audio file that will play when the slide is displayed.
If your PC has a microphone, you can record your own voice or music as
a WAV file using the built-in Windows recording functions. Audio
allows you to annotate each photo with either voice or music enabling
narrative shows or storybooks (example: “Hi Grandma, this is me at the
beach!”). Be creative!

Slideshow
Now that your slideshow is configured with your selected transitions and
fill-colors, you can preview how the slideshow will appear in either
landscape or portrait mode on the MemoryFrame before sending.
Selecting “Preview Slideshow” from the View menu will present the
slideshow in a window using your transition and timing selections. This
function is also available by clicking on “preview-slideshow” icon (

in the toolbar.

Modes
MemoryFrame supports both portrait (vertical) or landscape (horizontal)
orientations. You can select whether your slideshow should be
configured in either Portrait or Landscape modes. When you send the
slideshow to MemoryFrame it will automatically program
MemoryFrame for the orientation you selected. This function is
available by clicking on “{Portrait/Landscape” icon (
) in the toolbar.
6.5.11 Preferences
The Preferences menu allows you to control two settings: 1) how often
the program will automatically check the Internet to see if updated
versions of MemoryFrame software are available for download (see
section 6.7), and 2) whether or not to always remind you “to put
MemoryFrame into slideshow mode” before communicating (send,
receive, update, etc.). To control these settings, click on File then select
“Preferences.” After making changes, click on “Apply” then “OK” to
save the new preferences settings.
