I'm just reading out of my Panasonic television and Pioneer DVD player manuals: they use the term "RGB Composite Video".

"RGB composite" makes no sense; composite video is baseband video (y/c) not RGB. An RGB signal is any scan rate, sent analog over distinct circuits- think VGA at 15kHz for example. -Ryan -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
Re: OTish: Mac slide show
I'd buy a book if I were you. I have too little experience with iMovie to offer more advice knowledgeably. My own use of iMovie and iDVD has been fairly light weight thus far, although I'm beginning to get involved with doing more integrated still/video/music projects.

I don't know of any projectors that do not take an RGB composite input signal (either PAL or NTSC, or both), nor any DVD Players that do not have an RGB composite output ... So the answer is that once the presentation is rendered to a DVD, be sure that the DVD player you're going to play it on can read it. After that, it's up to you to figure out how to connect up the player and the projector. Gdofrey -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
Re: OTish: Mac slide show
Forgot this. I'll have about 3000 or more pictures to put into this slide show. When i did the baby shower one, i placed each of the 25 pictures in the area one at a time, and st the transition and fades etc. This could take some time to do then, unless there is some automated features. Hopefully imovie help is choke full of goodies, or maybe buy a book.

I didi a small show of about 25 pictures of a baby shower at Xmas time and the couple has yet to play it, but i'll assume what i did worked.:-) I watch a show from Vancouver sometimes, Dotto's Cafe, and he shows how to work both Mac and PC programs. He didi a piece on imovie to idvd but i forget some of the transitions. I can buy a DVD of his season III which has that on.

Best thing to do is to output the slide show to a DVD that can be played with anything that can attach to a projector, whether it be an off the shelf DVD player, Mac OS X or Windows laptop with a DVD drive in it. iMovie and iPhoto work together with iDVD to master the DVD. You can use iTunes to integrate music or other sound into the iMovie project, or import them directly. Of course, if you're getting fancy about it, there are more sophisticated tools available like Final Cut Express, etc. Godfrey -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
