I start a show in 448 then save as in 448 then open it and tune it in ver 5 and resave in 5 ver under a different name -- i will be using nobeefstu's trick of using help file comments next episode:) http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums/index....ost&p=43955 i select show comments - name of slide etc then adj accordingly with objects animation as show is developed in this example the slide # is out of the picture - in not safe zone but posn' bib # and runner's name has been coloured and sized so it shows proper when viewed on tv -- i set up text while viewing it on a tv at other end of room the race was very difficult to put together as the shadows were changing as well as pos'n people in each shot - thus i had to change size colour pos'n for nearly every slide -- 301 slides to suit background -- where their legs were etc when working with the slide name comments in ver 5 it also changes your slide # so you have to be careful in the renaming process i had to rename all slides before i started - i was using 2 cameras and getting runners in order is a must ken

Al may be a while replying - he is on a trip ken

ver 5 in o/a you change colour of text for each individual slide ken

try disabling your anti virus software when trying to run from disc just a thought ken

Ray sounds like the usual problem of trying to run a show from a cd -- not enough computing power to do the job been a discussed problem many times ken

Felix generally i find that the smaller show requires longer to complete -- i would try to make a 10 min show and see if the problem goes away some general background reading for you http://www.answers.com/topic/optical-disc-authoring http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_disc_...ng_technologies http://www.dvdtech.com.au/info/technical/taylor_FAQ.htm http://www.cdrfaq.org/ http://www.mrichter.com/cdr/primer/primer.htm http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=wr...a+dvd&meta= ken

i have always wondered why as well -- do you suppose it wants to change the access date / time? ken

Felix have you left the program running for 1/2 hr or 1 hr sometimes it seems to take forever to get the complete screen -- it could be that program is writing the lead out function. what is the run time of your show? ken

Ed search reveals this http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums/index....&hl=desktop ken

sorry about that John could it be your screen resolution needs to be adjusted - i have a standard 19" screen and i run 1024/768 and i do not have your problem --also the default windows text size may have to be reduced -- just a guess ken

subject has been discussed many times - Igor's decision use search majority of users did not use it and same was causing some problems in new version i believe ken

you might add these links to help resolve http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums/index....amp;#entry41821 http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums//index...+navigation+bar and this one may help in the search for Igor's "I thought there was a " Blow by Blow ' thread on how to edit navigation bar ( possibly by Igor ) but using search, I cannot find." http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums//index...amp;#entry21083 ken

shito -- good shots at least you tried:) see what another person did at http://imageevent.com/mauricio23/vancouver/fireworks ken

if you go to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\PicturesToExe there is a nav bar folder with a readme ken

CTRL+S WORKS FOR ME KEN

copy the exe from the cd to the desktop and try running it direct from the computer ken

gruesome but well presented ken

WITH 4.48 you can resize the composition from within the program in the old days we did that regularly for starters spend some time here http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums//index...;f=4&t=1350 ken
