MPEG Slideshow

[DIL23-2]

Hi

Has digikam dropped this feature? I know it's a KIPI plugin - but KIPI appears
to be fully installed? or my dist doesn't include that plugin?

Using Kubuntu 10.10
Digikam 1.4.0
KDE 4.5.1

Thanks in advance for any help & thanks digikam devs for a wonderful app! :)

Yes, this feature is dropped. The old KDE3 kipi-plugin have never
ported to KDE4.

You must found an alternative to do it.

Thanks Gilles

open to ideas folks! Ideally I'd like to put it on DVD/CD and as
'playable/portrable' as possible? :)

Just had a look at K3B & I can't see a way to make a 'show'

Ideally I would like to make a show with transitions, frame rates/display
times, maybe sound etc into one video(?) file that would work on most systems
be uploadable to YouTube/Vimeo or similar.

Thanks for your replies

you cannot encode in MPEG with K3B, but you can backup files or albums
on DVD like this using D&D

In fact the Advance Slideshow feature in digikam would be fine - if I could
SAVE it!

Just to add a "me too" - I have for some time been looking for something
like a "slideshow with sound" feature. More precisely, I'd like to produce
a kind of "movie", bundling sound and (synchronised!) slide show, playable
on computers (and possibly on DVD players).

The problem is not to produce something like this with standard tools:
ffmpeg, for example, can produce movies from jpg files. The actual problem
is to keep the file sizes small. Standard movie encodings (mp4, avi, ...)
are obviously optimised to deal with moving pictures, not (mostly static)
slide shows. I'd like to have a frame rate of 1/5 or 1/10 (that is, a new
picture every 5 or 10 seconds), and ideally a movie file that isn't (much)
bigger than the picture files I start with (plus audio file, of course).

Any suggestions? I'd prefer standard tools/file formats over a customised
mp3-format with customised mp3-player ...

line command?

thats easy, but the result may be suboptimal for your use. I can do
because I have a HD monitor.

that said ffmpeg can do this (including with the low framerate, I
think), and almost any linear video editor can do (kdenlive to keep
staying on kde)

the mpeg compressor should take care of compression, eventually
modifying the gop size

I haven't tried it yet, but I'm thinking I should: dvd-slideshow
(availible in ubuntu repos)
http://jcornuz.wordpress.com/2008/01/22/producing-a-dvd-slideshow/
Seems pretty simple, but I'll let you know if I get around to testing
later today.

You could also try KMediaFactory which has the option of creating a DVD
slideshow from JPEGs, but I've never tried it.

If you want to run the slide show just on your computer, having
installed a web server like apache, or on an external webserver, then
you could use jalbum (jalbum.net) together with the "Fotoplayer" plugin.
This is free software and has almost all the features you want,
including audio files. It is almost ideal for producing web
presentations of photos.

Hi,

You also have SMILE  which is available on most distribution. The website
seems not to work anymore (why ?)
http://freshmeat.net/projects/smileslideshow

I used it in the past and it was good.
