I am creating a slideshow for the first time on iMovie. I have the latest version. I have added 2 songs to the slideshow and with all the research I have done, I can't figure out how to fit the slideshow to the music. Does anyone know how this is done? I'm trying to get this project completed for xmas.
iMac Line (2012 and Later)
Thanks very much for that. I will give it ago. I wish there was a more simpler way though. I am new to Mac OS and on my old Windows PC I had an old Nero program that with the click of a button it just did it all for you automatically.
Thanks again.
Determine the total number of seconds in the songs and divide by the number of pictures you have.
If the songs add up to 360 seconds and you have 100 pictures, you will have a picture duration of 3.6 seconds for each photo so that the photos end perfectly. Note this is not accounting for any transitions you have, but in that case you would determine how many transitions you have and then include those in your equation.
To change the duration of the photos, highlight all the photos in the timeline (CMD + A) > Click the 'i' button in the upper right corner > change the duration to match the math.
Ok. So I've had a go at what you suggested and it sounds good, but I'm not sure what is going on with my program as it will not allow me to change the duration at all via the 'i' button. I've even tried creating a new project. No matter what I type it will not allow me to type in anything in the duration section.
It's ok. I worked it out. Thanks again.
