Imagination 3.0 Slideshow Presentation

Older version 2.1 for Lucid Puppy

imagination-3.0b.pet (modified version if name doesn't show in menu)

Imagination is still being developed

Quote:
Imagination at present features 69 transition effects, random
function to automatically set a random transition on all the selected slides,
cut/copy/paste ability on the slides, Ken Burns ability, text on the slides
with some text animations, ability to add an empty slide with a gradient
editor and export of the slideshow as OGV Theora/Vorbis, widescreen FLV
video and 3GP for mobile phones.

Status

The latest stable release of Imagination is 3.0 released on 06/03/11 with
HD export! If you're upgrading from pre-2.0 version of Imagination, make
sure you uninstall old version before attempting to install this one.


I wasn't successful in compiling it so I cheated and downloaded the
launchpad.com debian files and made a pet package.

Requirements: ffmeg and sox --> ffmeg is inside most puppies
so that means that only sox needs to be installed(but it needs to be a
'full' version of sox with libsox). I've included a version I found
on the forum that works for me.


Because this pet package is derived from the debian packages
it will only work on special versions of Puppy. I couldn't get it to
work with Lucid Puppy for instance.

I've checked it out with these versions -->

1) Barry Kauler's Precise Puppy
2) Slacko
3) Pemasu's Wheezy
4) Pemasu's version of Precise works, however there is a
problem with the application name not showing in the start menu so
launching with the terminal is necessary.

I've included an example of a presentation video so that you
can see what is possible with no training. It's simply
one image with text and a soundtrack added. Laughing
The format is VOB which is similar to mpeg and can be easily burnt
to a DVD.

You can use Shinobar's ffconvert to convert to another format.

Some Tips: use menu items

Slideshow > Import pictures
Slideshow > Import music
Export

You can also drag an image to bottom of application window.
Each image can have transistions associated with it.

Hi, don570.

Runs in (my private version of) LazY Puppy. Could you publish a file to load into Imagination (Your video example?) to test if it works also?

Edit:

Might not run in the web versions of LazY Puppy, because my private version has a lot of stuff removed that is still in the web versions. If so, post information of messages when trying to run from console. If possible, I will help to get this running in the web versions.



I have made a SFS from the files. Copied all files into a directory and used the LazY PaDS for this.

First try did fail, because of the sox-14.2.0-with-deps.pet. This .pet has been renamed after its creation. Doing such things results in two different directories at extracting the .pet.

One directory is named as the original file and contains the original data. Second directory is named like the renamed .pet, which then contains only directory var.

Please, all .pet creators: DO NOT RENAME a .pet after its creation to keep the LazY PaDS able to build a single SFS from a directory containing .pet and .deb files.

Thanks

RSH

OK.

Works also in LazY Puppy. Here is an example for imagination, created in LazY Puppy. I have successfully exported this from Imagination.

EDIT:

Attachment removed, because ti doesn't include the data I've used ---> seems to be just a text file containing descriptions like HTML/XML or .conf files.

Sorry. Did just realized now, a file sized 1kb could not include several images. Laughing

I never checked to see if it had been renamed.
It was posted a couple of years ago by somebody
and nobody complained...
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=437379

There is a special Lucid version of Sox in the official repository.

Maybe it works. I didn't check....


If you try imagination on an old version of Lucid puppy ,
there will be glibc errors.

in Carolina. Follow the instructions carefully.

Imagination works well within Slacko 5.5 but using the terminal.
No further investigation, just a look : it opens.

I need to look at the desktop file that Imagination uses.
When I have time I'll do that.

I worked on the desktop file. I couldn't find any errors.
There must be a bug in BarryK's installer program.

I modified the pet package in version imagination-3.0b.pet

It has two desktop files which seems to fool the installer program
so that it will show Imagination in start menu at least in Precise.

I'll test it in the newest Slacko.

I tested it in Wheezy and it works.

Any interest in something like this but in an extremely simplified version - as in, 1 image + 1 sound track + 1 watermark/overlay that outputs to a .mp4 video for upload to youtube?
here is an example.

Yes, I would be interested in such version, but I can not watch the video. It won't load even after a long time.
