    Thanks for testing. I need to think on this problem.

    Can you create 4K 30p or 60p video using Hardware Acceleration option? It will work only if you have modern NVIDIA graphics (Geforce 1060, 1070, 1080, 2060, 2070, 2080).

    Hi Igor,

    I'm afraid not, my card is too old. The increase in speed is what made me think of upgrading, but my hardware precludes it.

  2. Its possible to run the .bat in a minimized state. In order to do this you create a new .bat file to run your slideshow.bat file.

    Create a new name.bat file using:

    start /min slideshow.bat

    Exit

    * Make sure your slideshow.bat includes Exit

    Hi nobeefstu,

    Thanks for that information - magic.

    I was brought up in the days of DOS and "start" didn't exist then.

  3. To drive off a "Menu" sequence, use a background image of your choice and then add buttons or thumbnails and give these the "Run Slideshow" or "Run Slideshow and Return" action under Action on mouse click on the Common tab in the O&A window. To chain one sequence off the back of another use the Project Options...More tab option to Run application/slideshow on exit.

    Peter, thanks for the reply. I understand what you are saying, but unfortunately I didn't give you the full story of what I'm trying to do.

    Here goes :-

    It is a travelogue and I want to click one button that says "View all" and another button which says "View by place". This latter button goes to a slide with a map with buttons placed on the map that can be clicked to "Run slideshow with return" for a particular place.

    What I want to achieve with the "View all" is the ability to run in sequence all these individual place slideshows which of cause don't want to have a "Run slideshow on exit" for use in the "View by place" mode.

    I realise that I could copy all of the individual slide shows in to one big one for the "View all", but I was hoping I could avoid the duplication that that would involve.

    regards

    Bob

  4. Hi all,

    I'm sure that the topic of running a number of slide shows successively and automatically has cropped up before, but cannot locate an answer.

    I have resorted to creating a '.bat' file with the slide show EXEs named on successive lines and then have a button that "runs application or open file" on clicking. It works but with the cmd screen showing in between each.

    Am I missing a trick? Can "Run Slideshow With return" take a list of slideshows and overcome the 'cmd' screen bit?

  5. Hi All,

    I've been a lurker on this forum for some time, it has been very informative as well. Anyway getting back to the thread of competition software, our club uses ImageComp Pro

    http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/imagecomppro/index.html

    It has worked well for us and costs very little, and after a bit of training on behalf of the button pusher gives a very slick presentation for all aspects required.

    I'm sure this topic was raised some time ago and several other packages mentioned as well.

    Bob
