The following tasks take you step-by-step through creating a slideshow in VideoWave. Although VideoWave is a video-editing application, it can be used to create a slideshow with photos as well. The first step to creating your slideshow is to launch VideoWave and import your photos into a new project.

Add Photos to a Slideshow

Open VideoWave

From the Easy Media Creator project pane, select DVD & Video to open up the menu. From the DVD & Video menu, select Edit Video. This launches VideoWave.

Create New Production

When VideoWave has launched, you are given the option to create a new production or edit an existing one. Select Create a new production and set your aspect ratio. Change the aspect ratio of your slideshow to fit your TV. Standard TVs are 4:3; widescreen TVs are 16:9. Click OK.

Select Add Photo/Video

After you are inside VideoWave, select Add Photo/Video to bring up the Insert photos/videos window.

Browse for Photos

From the Insert photos/videos window, you can browse for your albums or folders to find the pictures to create a slideshow. You can select more than one by pressing down the Shift key and clicking to select photos in a series or the Control key to select more than one individually.

Click Open

When you are finished selecting the photos you want, click Open to import them into VideoWave.
