jmbmichael Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Looking for a free alternative to Photo Story for teachers that want to create slideshows, and preferably something that includes DVD authoring ability. Photostory only saves in WMV so thats a pain when trying to find a free DVD authoring software so it would be nice to find an all in one solution.
ZeroHour Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 If you have office powerpoint can export to a video file in mp4 then possibly try DVD Flick to burn it. I have not used DVD Flick but it appears to be open source which is nice.
hallb15 Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Windows movie maker does DVD authoring. Its not available from Microsoft but you can find it via google. You have to download Windows Live Essentials, but you can then use the following to install just the movie maker components: "wlsetup-all.exe" /silent /AppSelect:MovieMaker /noceip /NOToolbarCEIP /NOhomepage /Nolaunch /nosearch /nomu /r:n
Reverend_Dan Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Just used https://www.dvdstyler.org/en/ for our film studies submission not bad. I will do slideshows with transitions and music. But usually, for celebration end of year type of things we use powerpoint and export as mp4. Drop 20 photos on a slide ctrl-a style it like a photo, jaunty angle them the transition fade after other with a delay of a few seconds. export that import that into movie maker or premier for titles and music.

jmbmichael Posted May 18, 2017 Author Posted May 18, 2017 We used DVDStyler this year to burn their PhotoStory videos but the output quality was terrible. We used to use Movie Maker but it has been pulled by MS and I have yet to find a link that doesn't just point to the MS website. Does anyone happen to have a good link?
