Project Options - add image as BG Slide Options - Select all slides and add the image as BG Alternatively, If you use the O&A / Splitter for BG Objects you can apply Blur etc to the BG Object/Image. DG P.S. Note that certain basic PRESET Transitions will move the BG along with the main Object. To have a completely STATIC BG Image during a transition you have to use an ADVANCED Transition which has "Use BG from Slide" and "Transparent BG of Slide" enabled or create your own version of the Basic Preset.

First try: Perspective Canvas Wrap 1 - Static Image: Perspective Canvas Wrap 1.ptestyle Perspective Canvas Wrap 2 - with Subtle Framing: Perspective Canvas Wrap 2.ptestyle DG

P.S. I have tried a different Style with Video and the same thing happens. DG

I confirm Lumenlux error. In its simplest form I added the same converted video to the Slide List six times and highlighted all. Apply the Cube Style. The result is the single Slide Cube with the video as a BG. The Style duration is 32 seconds and it plays OK. When I try to Save - exactly the same error (only happens with video):

Agreed and in the final version a choice of direction would be offered. The text seemed appropriate at this time. DG

If you have a BD player it should have a USB port to play an MP4 from. You can write an MP4 (HD) to a DVD/Bd as data - the BD Player will play it through its media player - its the same thing. DG

You can improve on that by using an MP4 on a memory key and using the Media Player of suitably equipped TVs with USB ports. DG

Using a video straight out of your camera, right click on it in the File List. Choose to Convert it. In the pop up box you can trim etc and convert. WHEN FINISHED it will appear in the file list as a copy with the suffix "converted". Drag this into the slide list. If you are still getting errors we need to know what the errors are. Describe them and/or post screen shots of error messages. It might also help to know something about your PC system.
