i hate to ask, but, besides disabling enhancements, do you know of any other
way of enabling smooth musical transitions between slides using dvd slideshow
maker. after disabling the enhancements, the presentation worked well, so i
closed it thinking all was well. when i started to edit the presentation
again today, i noticed that the problem was in fact still there: the music
hesitates at each picture transition. i'm wondering if perhaps one needs a
super computer to run vista along w/ these programs. i was hoping to do some
video editing on this new computer, but if it cannot even manage a
photoslideshow, i wonder.
anyhow.\
your original advice was helpful. if you can think of anything else
regarding this matter, please let me know.

tia,

eric
