Still Image problem in 10.4.0 (fix in 10.4.1)
Posted: Fri Mar 13, 2009 2:29 am
I was very pleased to find the new Still Image facility in 10.4.0, as it obviates the need to create a slide show in MovieMaker for simple images, unless one wants tricky cross fades (presently not possible in SCS).
However, I cannot make the Slide Show workaround (as described in the Help file) work. With a sequence of four images, say, setting Cues 2, 3 & 4 to auto-start 0.1 secs BEFORE the end of Cues 1, 2 and 3 respectively, each with a play length of 5.1 secs, as suggested, on starting Cue 1 SCS immediately steps through 1, 2 and 3 and only plays 4 to the end. It's as if 'BEFORE the end' was being read as 'AFTER the beginning'. 'After the end' works correctly, albeit with a small blackout.
If it makes any difference I'm using the on-screen preview panel.
