Q Functional question about Photostory on DVD 2013 de Luxe

Can I have recorded messages along the photostory. 

With photostory you can select mp-3 songs to accompany the series of photos. In addition there are all kind of possibilites in include text on any photo. The question is can one also have spoken text accompanying the photos, instead or in addition to the songs. If so how does it work?. If not it would be a great enhancement to the product.

Hi

Yes you can record commentry for your project - see Record Sound in the installed PDF manual which should be under the Help menu.  You do need a microphone - a USB one will be better.

Hi

If you are using the download version then, if the software follows the same as other Magix products, there is a second download with more templates, sounds etc to download and install.

See under Help, Free download or something similar.

( I dont have Photostory installed anymore. )

Hi,

If you did download everything, they may have moved the location. In Movie Edit Pro, Collages are under Design Effects as a separate item, along with PIP, whereas in PhotoStory 2013, Collages are by themselves. Magix may have done the same as in MEP. In MEP, there are different effects under PIP, not collages.

Hi Derek,

You should start your own thread, as this one is 3+ years old and not really relevant to your question. Please make a new thread and we will answer you there and provide more details. This will also help others.
