Hi Jeanne,

I wonder if you could kindly take the time to advise me on the following:

I am trying to build a Fine Arts slideshow using Revolution. It consists of
some 200 images of paintings accompanied by a music soundtrack, lasting
about 20 minutes (automatic play with dissolve transitions).
>> 
>> The problem is the need for a practical way of creating an accurate
>> synchronization between the images and the music soundtrack (meaning that
>> each image must be shown at a specific time in the soundtrack).
>> 
>> This sync creation process should be natural and easy enough, something like:
>> 
>> 1. go to ³authoring mode²;
>> 2. play the slideshow and click ³go next card² just by listening when a
>> specific musical event is reached;
>> 3. repeat this process consecutively as the images go by, and commands for
>> ³go next card² should be inserted automatically in the script.

Do you know of any already existent stack that builds slideshows in this
way? If not, how do I write a script for this?

Thank you very much for your help.

Regards,

Joao
