Hi Lin,

and what about you? Won't you be happy, as well? I'm about to postpone my present production in order to use the new feature. I am looking forward to the new version, and I hope that I'll be happy with it.

Best regards,
Xaver

Come on Lin, give us a clue.

Hello Igor and your team.
I think all the repsonses of your announcement speak for themselves for your proposals on the next version.
They are massive leaps forward and I believe we should all wait patiently to see just how these will present and work in the forthcoming beta versions.
I for one will welcome the sound implementation as I feel this will truly help keep the software at the leading edge of today's market.

Yours eagerly awaiting

Anthony

Hi Eric,

LOL - That was a "major" clue.

I was the first to congratulate Igor on the new announced features:

Hi Igor,

Sounds fantastic! Many will be "very" happy about the improvements for sound!!

Best regards,

Lin

My response to Xaver's question was;

Quote

E Pluribus Unum

Logic lesson:

Sounds fantastic! Many with be "very" happy with the improvements for sound!! - Translation: of latin: of many, one.

Therefore I am one of many who will be "very" happy about the improvements for sound. I'm very happy about "any" improvements in what is already a fantastic program.

Best regards,

Lin

Eric,

Brush up on your Latin. He did! "E pluribus unum" = " First among equals" loosely translated.

Latin for "Out of many one",

I would translate that as meaning Lin has a lot of irons in the fire:)

Also we're working on porting of PicturesToExe to Mac. That's all I can say now.

It is a very beautiful and great news that you tell us dear Igor.
Indeed, having to accept my joint work on projects that include photos and videos, that this does not suit me because knowing "a little" PTE this will only strengthen my work and give substance to my interlocutors.

Thank you very much, Mr. Kokarev

[Peter S]

I'm a bit late on picking up on this but great news Igor. I am particularly keen to see the first beta of the Mac version.
The sound editing possibilities look really good although I am quite happy using Audition when needed.

Kind regards
Peter

I too am excited by what I have read here!
May I make a small suggestion that might be conveniently implemented at the same time? When there is background sound (which I imagine is usually continuous music and not tied to particular slides), and also sound on particular slides (which is probably voice commentary), it would be great to have the background music automatically reduced in volume when the commentary comes in. Ideally, fading out before the commentary, and fading in after, would be fantastic. Also desirable would be a user option to specify the amount of volume reduction.
The result would be a much more convenient process for building the slideshow, and a more professional-sounding result.
Thank you for giving this your earnest consideration!

This post should have been placed in the suggestions for future section so that Igor could keep track of it

As a programmer of 48 years experience, I judged that it was best placed here, as Igor and the team are working on the audio facility. But thank you for the suggestion, I should put it there too. It is actually a suggestion not for the distant future, but for the "next version", the subject of this forum.

Jean-Pierre,
Probably we will add "Export tracks to MP3" option to mix all tracks into one audio file.
It also be nice to have an ogg option with different quality levels, the same for mp3.

Excuse me for long absence on the forum.

We're working on the next version. Probably its version name will be 6.5.

Here are some part of new features and changes:

- The key feature is an advanced audio manipulations with tracks. Fade in/out, cross-fading, simple virtual editing.

- "Insert Blanc Slide" feature.

- "Go to slide" will support slide names in addition to slide numbers.

- Some improvements for 3D objects, including ability to visually adjust 3D axis in the editor by mouse.

Inserting of video clips also in progress already a half of year, but will not be available in the next version yet. We need more time to implement it. A great challenge for PicturesToExe.

Also we're working on porting of PicturesToExe to Mac. That's all I can say now.

Hi Igor

I am waiting with baited breath for you to announce PTE v1 for Mac. The are many of us out there that muddle through by introducing windows to our Macs with all the problems that ensures .> The Mac look alike is Fotomagico not a patch on PTE so please sooner rather than later.

Hello Mike, I know the feeling. I purchased PTE last September and found PTE to be superb. At that time I had a new MacBook Pro and was able to build Presentations to play on the MacBook Pro though our HD TV and they were stunning and even on my PC/Cinema 23inch monitor (where I build the Presentations) they were incredibly sharp. .......but then I decided in December to move my business over entirely to Mac (MacPro 293 Quad/24" Cinema). From the Mac versus Pc comparison I couldn't be more satisfied BUT I lost my ability to use PTE and am temporarily using Keynote to build presentations for my customers but do I miss PTE and its capabilities! I want to patiently wait on Igor and his fine team and know when they have it available I will be downloading it immediately. ......and passing this Product availability on to other Mac users
