I created an 80 image slideshow but it turned out to be 3G large...takes a long time to download or burn...any ideas on how I can make it faster? thanks

@Bill-Wynn

80 images and you have a slideshow of 3 GB??? 😱

What is the resolution of each image? They must be HUGE! I would expect even very high resolution to not create a show of anything like that size.

Are they really images only, or are there any videos as well?

hi Jeff...thanks for the response...yes they are large files, I am a professional photographer and wanted my images to present as best they could....I have used large files in other programs before (Photodex ProShow) and never had this problem....I guess what I am hearing is that I will have to reduce the image sizes to be useable with PhotoStory

Thanks for the additional information.

No, PS should NOT have a problem creating a slideshow of that size! What export format have you chosen, and to what medium is the show being burned or downloaded?

In addition to @emmrecs posts, what is your computer specification - see this topic for details of what is required and please quote the processor and graphics card(s) full name and model.

BTW you have not answered what the fix was for the audio issue - it is good etiquette to post the solution so other users who have the same issue can try it.

sorry about that John I thought I mentioned that my audio situation was solved....It was just a case of using the correct procedure to import music files from the computer....as far as my computer it's an HP desktop using Windows 10, with 16G memory and the graphics card is a Radeon

Thanks for the feedback on the audio issue.

For the HP specification we need more information - my apologies - I just checked my previous post and saw the link to the post detailing what we need did not take - this is the comment detailing the info we need.
