Adding soundtracks to slideshows
Slideshows can have a background audio track that plays while the slides are displayed. If a
slideshow does not have a set duration (each slide is displayed until the viewer presses the
Next button on the remote control), it cannot have an audio track. This is a limitation of the
DVD format.
A slideshow’s background audio track can comprise up to 99 audio files that play in
sequence. If you mix multi-channel audio files with other file types, DVDit Pro HD
downmixes the multi-channel audio to stereo.
To add audio to a slideshow:
1. Double-click the slideshow in the Project window. The Edit Slideshow window opens.
2. Click Options. The Slideshow Options dialog box opens.
3. In the Audio section, click Add, then select the audio files. The selected files are listed
in the Audio section in the order they will be heard on the finished disc.
4. Edit the Audio settings as desired:
t
Select the Fade In option to fade in the first audio file (not allowed if the file
contains multi-channel Dolby Digital audio).
t
Select the Fade Out option to fade out the last audio file (not allowed if the file
contains multi-channel Dolby Digital audio). This is useful when the audio duration
is longer than the slideshow duration.
t
Select the Loop Audio option to loop the audio track. This is useful when the audio
duration is shorter than the slideshow duration.
t
To reorder the sequence of audio files, click a file you want to move, then click
Move Up or Move Down. You can move one file at a time.
t
To delete an audio file from the slideshow, select the file and click Remove.
t
To make the slideshow and audio track the same duration, select the “Fit Slides to
Music” option in the Duration section. DVDit Pro HD adjusts the per-slide duration
so the slideshow duration matches the audio duration as closely as possible.
5. Click OK to close the Slideshow Options dialog box.
6. Click OK to close Edit Slideshow window.
n
Like images, audio files added to a slideshow also appear on the Palette window’s Media
tab.
