Back in the dim recesses of the last century I did sound slide shows using a 4-track reel-to-reel tape recorder, a 4-in 2-out mixer and a Wollensak sound/slide sync cassette recorder. This setup allowed me to do a narration, seamlessly fade in/fade out alternating tracks of music, and precisely control how long each slide was on the screen.
I�m the process of digitizing some of my nearly 40-year collection of slides. Presently I have two set scanned, one consisting of 31 slides the other 131, and would like to convert them into slide shows.
I would like the finished project to be a DVD that can be shared with family on their home DVD player/TV. It would have a menu to choose which of the two slide shows to view. I would like to use various pieces of music in each show and the transition from one piece to the next should be seamless. And I would like the ability when making the show to vary how long each slide will be on the screen. There won�t be any narration.
So, back to the title of this post: Which iApp should I use, iMovie or iDVD? I haven�t used either before. I have a Dual G5, iApps 4 and also Toast.
Thanks for reading this through and thanks in advance for any suggestions.
