Giving this reply an excellent rating. Since updating to Windows 10 I've suffered all kinds of bugs with Photo Story 2014, particularly MPEG activation insisting it be re-done every time I attempt to export, then it failing with no explanation, and Blu-ray writing hanging at the start of the second cut, which I suspect is linked to the codec activation. Ran through the 'fix' procedure last

Scott Sounds like your restoration work not only brings the recipient happiness (who doesn't need more of that?), it also brings back to life photos thought unusable.  It puts a smile to my face to hear of other people willing to do things for free because of the reward of helping others.  Your work and wisdom is noble and should inspire others. I too am in the building industry, an

douglasslb, do you mean as in connecting both videos into one? I haven't used their software yet. I loaded it up expecting something that wasn't [it's far to primative for me] and sorry mod's but it is. anyway let me go load it up and see if that primative thing can splice vid's together.   Ok I just tried it.

Sure wish I would of found this site before I purchased the program ... if I don't figure something out soon, my wife is going to club me over the head with a frying pan. You see, I told her I could do all these neat things with some old photos of her family. After simply one day it became apparent that the program was lacking in basic "how-to" stuff. This is not my first rodeo when it comes

Love the slideshow capabilities BUT totally agree that there needs to be much better documentation and tutorials.  The DVD burning process is extremely frustrating and puzzling.  It should not take sveral hours to burn a DVD.  Did you pay off TopTenReviews to give Xtreme Photo Story the best rating?  I've run into problems with the program intermittently not recognizing fade selections and no

I'd like to thank Magix for not only thier products but the oportunity to learn from the real Professionals it means alot to me and gives me hope. God bless This isn't as much an answer but a coment and offer.  I am disabled and have a terminal illness and I am stuck at home. I was more or less forced into the photo restoration and my pathetic attempts at artwork, with the hopes to keep my

I recently bought the software to make slide shows from the photos. Have done two "dummy runs" of DVDs, in preparation for the holiday photos with a few hundred photos. There seems to be a narrow range of the photo effects. Though I'll give it a go and work my way through the workshop.
