Are you starting all of your productions in the Videowave program to start with or in another program and then opening in Videowave ?? If youonly have 60 or so photos, transitions and even some audio, it shouldn't take but a short time to open and close it, after saving it. Based on where you posted I assume you are using EMC 10.

So i start with the SlideShow wizard, save it as a slideshow project. then i go to videowave and open this slideshow project and begin to edits. Should i re-post this under the Easy Media Creator 2009 section. thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start your production in VideoWave, which opens when you click on Edit Video-Enhanced, on the home screen. You will have to do your production over, if you want to use just VideoWave.

REDWAGON Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 AS GPB suggested, best to open "Videowave" and make all your slide show productions in that program. Much, Much better !! As far as where to post in the future, just check all of the separate forum groups and post accordingly. (i.e. EMC 9, 10, C2009, Legacy Programs etc.) The "General" forum is for about anything you would like to post about however. Frank... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open VideoWave, make a short production, save it, close VideoWave, and open it again. See if things speed up. You have enough RAM, but your video chip may be the bottleneck.
