the end of my 300+ pictures I added...any ideas?

===============================
If you are saying you want the same tune
to repeat while the pictures are being
displayed...try dragging additional copies
of the music file to the Audio/Music track.

Exactly what I'm asking. Same with Photo Story 3...no option for
looping. So I have to figure out which slide each song stops on before
I add the additional MP3? Wish there was a option to just loop music..
would make it easier on me :) I'm new to this tuff

If you add the custom music in PS3 it
will play to the end of the PhotoStory.

If you use your music...add a file and
drag the film strip to the end of the music
track...choose the next picture and add
the tune again.

No....just drag another copy on the timeline
and it will begin when the other one ends.

John thanks for the fast reply...should I add the music or the picture
files first or does it matter? I added the music and it only shows the
length in the time of the song.
 
Thanks a bunch John...problem now...is that the song is longer than
the ending pictures....is there a way to have it fade out at the last
image...as opposed to playing till the end of the song? A extra minute
of black screen doesn't help. Appreciate all this help.

=======================
I guess you are referring to Movie Maker?

Move your pointer around on the edge
of a clip until you see a double red arrow.
Now drag the double red arrow...you'll see
a tooltip that shows the duration changing.
End it where ever you want to.

Or...drag the vertical divider line to the end
of the last picture and left click the audio track...
now press the Split button just below the view
screen (or type Ctrl+L). Now you can right
click / delete the unwanted portion of the
sound clip.

To fade...just right click the sound file in the
Audio/Music track and choose..Fade Out.

You can figure this out if you experiment.

Movie Maker? I'm thinking it's best to add
the pictures first...until you do that you really
don't know how the music sorts out.
