I'm a newbie to Video Wave and EMC8. I have made the slideshow in video wave and then added two songs by selecting Add Background Audio. However, I can not hear any music when I preview the slideshow. The two songs are shown below the timeline view. Mute is not checked.
Can somebody help me?
Thanks!

Where did you get the music and in what format? If it from an on-line service, there are DRM issues. Try burning it to a disc and then capturing it back to your computer. If they are not from an on-line store, load them into Sound Editor and then export them to wav files. Sometimes this fixes them.
Regardless of what I say about computer maintenance, there is no need to defrag a solid state hard drive.

I got the songs from a cd. In roxio's main menu, I copied them to my hard drive as MP3's.
Thanks for your help with this. It's frustrating.

Actually I just figured it out! I used sound editor to import the music from the cd again... this time as a wav. file. That worked!
How do I adjust the timing of the slides to correspond with the end of the music?

I'm not in front of a PC that has EMC but is there a Fit to Audio icon in Timeline? If so, pressing that will adjust the time duration of the pictures to fit to the length of the music.

The "Help" screen says there is a "fit production to audio" button while in the Storyline View. That's definately where I am and I just don't see it. I have one music mix wav. file attached. The slideshow is a little longer than my music. The music stops before the slideshow ends.

I have had the same problem with mp3 files. even the ones from the manufacturer that ship on the CD will not play when added to a videowave production. And the tech support people have been less than helpful.
Wave files take up considerably more space and it is a hassle to convert files to .wav. I have found that it will work with an mp4 file and that saves space. I still find it interesting that they say they support mp3 and the sound editor will play an mp3 fine but VideoWave will not.
