Adding music to a slideshow produced with LR web module
« on: May 16, 2009, 08:08:23 AM »
I'm searching how to add music to my slide show (either Flash ou HTML) produced with the LR web module.
 
I'm quite new to all that. There is a lot of articles and threads about related matters but most of the time suggestions are for the slideshow module.
 
 
The question: can I produce with the LR web module a slideshow with music ? How ?
 
Thanks for your help.

Hi Gaston, the standard flash gallery doesn't give you that option, but a couple of the third party galleries could do it.  TTG Monoslideshow and SlideshowPro spring to mind.

Thanks for the answer.
 
After posting, I also have also found, from DIMIN.net, the "DIMIN Slideshow plug-in for Adobe Lightroom 2"
 
I still have to find out how to add more than one piece of music, but it's a start...

Gaston,

I downloaded and installed this plugin, but I can't seem to figure out what you put in the field for the music option so when I upload my song it plays on the website. I am on a Mac and am a little new to the Mac side of things.

Thanks

I'd really recommend you look at the SlideShowPro for Lightroom plug-in. Apart from its other qualities, it makes this kind of thing very easy. And it's also easy to help the visitor switch off the music too....

John,

I did try what you suggested and I am still having issues. In the path field I put the mp3 right at the root of my hard drive and in the path field in the plugin I I put /name.mp3. In the plugin in LR it plays the music, but when i upload it to my ftp site and try and access the slide show all I get is the slideshow and no music.

Any Ideas?
