Please try new version 7.5.2: http://www.wnsoft.com/files/picturestoexe/picturestoexe-setup-beta.exe Will it solve that problem?

Updated version PicturesToExe Deluxe 7.5.2 Beta with bug-fixes. Download http://www.wnsoft.com/files/picturestoexe/picturestoexe-setup-beta.exe Changes in version 7.5.2 * Fixed bugs with management of custom transition effects. * Masks didn't work (7.5.x) on some old Intel video cards. * Fixed problem with incorrect values in Canvas Size tab in Adjust Image and Border window. * Minimum value for Pan Z is changed from -1000 to -1000000. P.S. It's a stable version and I'll publish same file as a final version 7.5.2 on Monday.

Xaver, Sound comments were always sycnhronized since v5.0.

Tom, Text templates are not applicable for a custom transition effects. Because there is no main image, not certain slide (transition between two slides), not EXIF, etc. But you right, "Insert text template" command is leading to misunderstanding. We'll disable this option for the editor of transition effects.

Thanks, Xaver! New version 7.5.2 will solve this problem.

Dave, I think that this problem is solved in future version 7.5.2. We'll publish new version today or tomorrow. Please test it and let me know about result. Thanks,

Xaver, Thanks, this problem is solved in v7.5.2. Today or tomorrow.

Thanks, Xaver. This problem is solved in future version 7.5.2 (today or tomorrow).

If your project contains PNG/GIF/BMP image files it can cause this difference, because PicturesToExe repacks them to internal lossless format before add to EXE.

I had to delete these links because under Windows 8 their new Start menu is a flat and all links are mixed! So I keep only one link - to main application of PicturesToExe. Regrettably installation package (InnoSetup) doesn't allow easily configure installation for separately for Windows 8 and previous Windows 7/Vista/XP. I'll wait when they add this support.

Gary, We'll remove this highlighting in v7.5.2. Probably we will use this text label for other actions in future versions. To jump to the last slide you can press End key. P.S. Sorry my late responses on the forum, I caught a cold on previous week.

Dave, It seems that it's impossible to create this effect for any aspect ratio.

Dave, Marcel, Great! A competition of transition effects! Marcel, please upload other linked image files which you use in that custom transition. Xaver, I just thought that masks are not required! It's possible to crop a slide objects with "Canvas Size" parameters. And no masks and more smooth animation of slow PCs.

Xaver, Nice effect! Thanks. P.S. I'll think question with aspect ratio.

Thanks for links, Tom! I'd be happy if somebody can make a custom transition as shown in first link. I really like this effect! http://tympanus.net/Development/Slicebox/ P.S. Both two effects are possible with the editor of custom transition effects.

Can you reproduce same problem with smaller files? Optimal size of all files - up to 100 MB.

Probably it will take even more time. The problem in a fact that PicturesToExe is using previous version of this audio file. And for this reason it can't replace the file.

Andrew, I confirm your findings. Thanks! I'll try to fix this problem in the next update 7.5.2.

Umberto, Can you please send me original project file where I can hear this difference between EXE and created HD video file? What size of all project files?

If you find any new publications about PicturesToExe 7.5 in local magazines please let me know (personal message or email). I add articles to our website. Thanks in advance!

Peter, Robert, My congratulations!

Peter, I confirm this issue. But it happens in all previous beta-versions, RC and final version 7.5. If you start PicturesToExe and switch at least one time to the timeline view (before the steps you've described) this problem will not occur. We'll try fix it in v7.5.2.

Peter, Did you observe it in previous 7.5 or in RC?
