How do you find a specific photo in a slide show

I am trying to burn a DVD of a slide show that I am working on. I get the following error message

"The photo 139 of Slideshow is shorter than one second. For correct navigation the photo should be longer than one second. Do you still want to create the disk?"

I have 541 photos on my time line. Is there a quick way to go directly to photo 139? When I scan the timeline they all appear to be set to 7 seconds.

Hi,

With 7 seconds as the length of the photos, start looking at around 16 minutes.

You can also look at the DVD menu on the burn screen for a possibility.

Thank you. That is what I ended up doing. I just thought that if the program knew I had a problem with photo 139, I was hoping there would be an easy way to just go directly there.

Hi Terry,

Glad you found it.

If all of your photos are supposed to have the same duration, but some do not, it is easy to change/correct. Right-click on an image, View Duration, and set the duration to what you want, the Apply to all.

However, often the images are not all the same duration, especially if you use the SlideShow Wizard with the duration to be set to the beat, for part of the project, and another part with a different song to another beat. Or, for other reasons.
