SlideShowVideo[{image1, image2, …} -> dt] shows each of the imagei for the duration dt. SlideShowVideo[{{image1, dt1}, {image2, dt2}, …}] shows each of the imagei for the duration dti. SlideShowVideo[{image1, image2, …} -> {dt1, dt2, …}] also shows each of the imagei for the duration dti. SlideShowVideo[tseries] shows values of the time series tseries at their corresponding times. ## Details and Options * ``SlideShowVideo`` can be used to generate a slide show from a list of images. [image] * ``SlideShowVideo[image, …]`` creates a video from a single image. * Each ``imagei`` can be an ``Image``, a ``Graphics`` object or a ``File`` object linking to an image file. * By default, ``SlideShowVideo`` places the new video under the ``"Video"`` directory in ``\$WolframDocumentsDirectory``. * The following options are supported: | | | | | ---------------------- | ------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------- | | BitRate | Automatic | approximate bit rate to use | | CompressionLevel | Automatic | compression level to use | | DefaultDuration | Automatic | the default duration in seconds | | FrameRate | 30 | the frame rate to use | | GeneratedAssetFormat | Automatic | the file format of the result | | GeneratedAssetLocation | \$GeneratedAssetLocation | the location of the result | | OverwriteTarget | False | whether to overwrite an existing file | | RasterSize | Automatic | the raster size used to rasterize expressions | | VideoEncoding | Automatic | video encoding to use | | VideoTransparency | False | whether the output video should have a transparency channel | * With ``DefaultDuration -> Automatic``, the duration specified for each ``imagei`` is assumed to be the absolute slide duration. If no duration is specified per slide, a five-second video is generated. ## Examples (7) ### Basic Examples (1) Create a video from a list of images: ```wl In[1]:= SlideShowVideo[{[image], [image], [image]}] Out[1]= [image] In[2]:= VideoFrameList[%, 3] Out[2]= {[image], [image], [image]} ``` ### Scope (4) By default, the resulting video is 5 seconds long: ```wl In[1]:= SlideShowVideo[{[image], [image], [image]}] Out[1]= [image] In[2]:= Duration[%] Out[2]= Quantity[5., "Seconds"] ``` --- Specify the same duration for all images: ```wl In[1]:= [image] Out[1]= [image] In[2]:= Duration[%] Out[2]= Quantity[3., "Seconds"] ``` --- Specify a duration for each image: ```wl In[1]:= SlideShowVideo[{[image] -> 1, [image] -> 2, [image] -> 5}] Out[1]= [image] In[2]:= Duration[%] Out[2]= Quantity[8., "Seconds"] ``` --- Create a video from a ``TimeSeries`` of images: ```wl In[1]:= SlideShowVideo[TemporalData[TimeSeries, {{{Image[CompressedData["«52744»"], "Byte", ColorSpace -> "RGB", Interleaving -> True], Image[CompressedData["«75886»"]\ , "Byte", ColorSpace -> "RGB", Interleaving -> True], Image[CompressedData["«74808»"], "Byte", ColorSpace -> "RGB", Interleaving -> True]}}, {{0, 2, 1}}, 1, {"Continuous", 1}, {"Discrete", 1}, 1, {ResamplingMethod -> {"Interpolation", InterpolationOrder -> 1}, ValueDimensions -> 1}}, False, 12.3]] Out[1]= [image] In[2]:= VideoFrameList[%, 6] Out[2]= {[image], [image], [image], [image], [image], [image]} ``` ### Options (2) #### DefaultDuration (2) By default, 5 seconds of video are generated: ```wl In[1]:= SlideShowVideo[{[image], [image], [image]}]//Duration Out[1]= Quantity[5., "Seconds"] ``` Specify the overall duration: ```wl In[2]:= SlideShowVideo[{[image], [image], [image]}, DefaultDuration -> 1]//Duration Out[2]= Quantity[1., "Seconds"] ``` If slide durations are specified, the overall duration would be the total of slide durations: ```wl In[3]:= SlideShowVideo[{[image] -> 1, [image] -> 2, [image] -> 5}]//Duration Out[3]= Quantity[8., "Seconds"] ``` --- If both slide durations and overall durations are specified, the slide durations are interpreted as relative to the requested overall duration: ```wl In[1]:= v = SlideShowVideo[{[image] -> 1, [image] -> 2, [image] -> 5}, DefaultDuration -> 1]; Duration[v] Out[1]= Quantity[1., "Seconds"] In[2]:= VideoFrameList[v, 6] Out[2]= {[image], [image], [image], [image], [image], [image]} ``` ## See Also * [`ConstantVideo`](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/ConstantVideo.en.md) * [`AnimationVideo`](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/AnimationVideo.en.md) * [`FrameListVideo`](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/FrameListVideo.en.md) * [`VideoGenerator`](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/VideoGenerator.en.md) * [`VideoTranscode`](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/VideoTranscode.en.md) * [`Video`](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/Video.en.md) * [`ListAnimate`](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/ListAnimate.en.md) ## Related Guides * [Video Computation: Update History](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/guide/VideoComputation-UpdateHistory.en.md) * [Video Creation](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/guide/VideoCreation.en.md) * [Video Processing](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/guide/VideoProcessing.en.md) ## History * [Introduced in 2021 (12.3)](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/guide/SummaryOfNewFeaturesIn123.en.md)
