Slideshow with Revolution?

[Joao Candido Portinari]

Hi good friends of this wonderful list! ‹ a list that proves that old
community spirit is alive...
(I knew my choice of ³You¹ve got a friend² lyrics was not fortuitous :-)

Thank you so much for your prompt and valuable help!

Especially to Chris Sheffield, Andre Garzia, Thomaz McGrath III, Glenn E.
Fisher, and Bob Warren, to whom I ask permission to respond collectively. (I
had already expressed my appreciation to Mark Swindell and Yves Coppe in a
previous message).

1. Hi Chris, thanks a lot! But I am sorry to say that, as a newcomer to
Revolution, I am not familiar with the ³callbacks property of the player
object². I would appreciate it if you could elaborate a bit further.
2. Andre, the slideshow contains only paintings and drawings, yes. Just one
image per card. The music soundtrack is also just one file, 22-minutes long.
I have tried using Keynote (version 2.0 allows the use of a soundtrack that
plays throughout the show). But I had to give up as I noticed that Keynote
lacks a feature allowing to sync images and sound ³on the run². It has to be
done ³manually², entering the times when the slides must advance in the
³Slide Transition² fields in the Inspector. And even then, the
synchonization can¹t be trusted, as it drifts around every time you play the
show. The advantage of Keynote over Quicktime is image quality. The
slideshow in Keynote is superb, as the images don¹t flicker and have a
marvelous definition, which is not the case with Quicktime, unless I¹m
missing something. It would be fantastic if Keynote¹s next version adds this
capability of syncing ³on the run². Thanks very much for your input!
3. Tom, I really appreciated you¹re taking the time to send me such an
informative and useful reply! I¹ll follow your advice, and see if I can
manage to get through to the end.
4. Hello Glenn, thanks very much! I¹m looking forward to receiving my key to
unlock access to revOnline, and be able to
5.  download the stacks you kindly uploaded.
6. Bob, thanks so much for your generous and friendly words of welcome! All
the best, Joao. 
7. Hi Andre, thanks for the art history classes :-)

Thanks again, and all the best to you all,

Joao
