Editing a Slideshow in the Video Content Area

You can edit a slideshow in any these ways:

• | By setting the picture of the menu button for this slideshow

• | By setting how long a slide remains on screen before the transition to the next one

• | By adding or removing photos from the slideshow

To set the button picture for a slideshow:

1 | In the Video content area, select the Slideshow you want to edit and click Edit.

| The Edit sheet appears.

2 | In the Edit sheet, click the Slideshow tab.

3 | Set the picture of the menu button for this slideshow:

| • | In the list of photos, click the photo you want to use as the menu button picture, then click the Set Button Picture button.

| The photo you selected appears in the Button Preview.

4 | From the Slide Duration pop-up menu, choose the time period that a slide displays before it transitions to the next photo in the slideshow:

| • | If you want automatic transitions based on number of seconds, choose the number of seconds.

| • | If you do not want slides to automatically transition, choose Manual. When viewing the final disc, you will be able to advance to the next slide by using your DVD player's remote control.

5 | You can add photos in either of these ways:

| • | Drag one or more photos from the hard disk into the Slideshow tab.

| • | Click Add. The Open dialog appears, where you can browse for photos on your hard disk. When you locate the photos, select them and click Open.

| The photos you added are now part of the slideshow.

6 | To remove photos, select the photos you want to remove, and click Remove. (This does not remove the original photos from your hard disk or iPhoto.)

7 | When you are finished editing your slideshow, click OK.
