This question was one I also pondered over when I first started using PTE. A forum member pointed me to Acoustica MP3 Audio Mixer which I find suits me excellently. Acoustica is a shareware program and only cost £15. You can find them at www.acoustica.com. There are multiple channels, probably more than you will ever need but ut is easy to use. It allows you mix music, adjust the volume of specific tracks, fade out, crossover, you name it. You can even have silence between tracks or at the satrt and end of a slide show and its aa awful lot cheaper than Adobe Audition. Gogs

Have tried bbdigitals suggestion and have allowed at least 1 full second between transitions. Seems to be running OK but as it was an intermittent problem might have to run the presentation a few more times to be sure that the problem is solved. Many thanks.

Thanks bbdigital. Transitions in the area causing the problem are butted right up against each other but do not overlap. I will try adding a period between the transitions to see if this helps. Alan. I thought that might have been the problem initially but I have copied the presentation to the hard drive and get the same problem. I will try bbdigitals suggestion and see if that helps. Tahnks all the same.

I have been putting together PTE presentations on my PC without problem. However when I run them on my laptop (newer and higher spec than PC) the transitions (i.e. cross fades) seem to work fine in the early part of the presentation but occaionally the transition jumps to the previous picture rather than the next. This can either just happen on a single occasion or can repeat itself jumping back and forward between the same two pictures. Music and commentary continue as normal but presentation is then out of synch. Has anyone else encontered this problem and if so can you offer any help to a solution. Laptop spec. Advent 7027, Processor P4 3Ghz, Memory 1Gb, Display Mobility Raedon 9000.

Thanks Ed I will give the options a try.

When adding background music to a presentation if there is more tha one piece of music there is a noticeable pause between the pieces. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to have a seamless transition of the music or a crossfade. If not is this something that others think might be a benefit in a future upgrade. gogs
