Details and Options

- SlideShowVideo can be used to generate a slide show from a list of images.
- SlideShowVideo[image,…] creates a video from a single image.
- Each imagei can be an Image, a Graphics object or a File object linking to an image file.
- By default, SlideShowVideo places the new video under the "Video" directory in $WolframDocumentsDirectory.
- The following options are supported:
-
BitRate Automatic approximate bit rate to use CompressionLevel Automatic compression level to use DefaultDuration Automatic the default duration in seconds FrameRate 30 the frame rate to use GeneratedAssetFormat Automatic the file format of the result GeneratedAssetLocation $GeneratedAssetLocation the location of the result OverwriteTarget False whether to overwrite an existing file RasterSize Automatic the raster size used to rasterize expressions VideoEncoding Automatic video encoding to use VideoTransparency False whether the output video should have a transparency channel - With DefaultDurationAutomatic, the duration specified for each imagei is assumed to be the absolute slide duration. If no duration is specified per slide, a five-second video is generated.

If slide durations are specified, the overall duration would be the total of slide durations:

If both slide durations and overall durations are specified, the slide durations are interpreted as relative to the requested overall duration:
