HelpConsole 2008 SP1

When a viewer clicks the Slideshow button in the gallery, the program launches a slideshow with an image-by-image display of all the images in an album. This feature lets you add background music or other audio to an album slideshow. You can add different music for each album. For more about adding audio to individual images, see About audio.

To Add audio to an album:

Select the thumbnail of the album to which you want to add audio
Browse to the location of your audio file and select it
To loop the audio, check the Loop box
Preview the audio by clicking the Preview button

To Disable audio for an album:

Select the thumbnail of the album for which you want to temporarily turn off audio
Check the Disable box

File formats

You can add either MP3 (MPEG) or WAV (Windows waveform) files to your gallery. For best results, we recommend MP3 files because WAV files can be 10 times larger than MP3 files and may take longer to download.

Adding audio to specific images

To add audio, such as narration or sound effects, to individual images, go to Step 2: Manage Media in this Album, select the Audio tab, select the thumbnail for which you want to add audio, and click on Add audio...
