"The built-in slideshow engine of the new iPod is nice - if you want to show granny the latest pictures of her grandson. But, would you use it to present your work to a potential client?" asks Oliver Breidenbach, head of Boinx Software. "There is a way to get the shine into the eyes of your audience with the new iPod: Control the timing of your slides. Add titles. Add a cool sound track. Add pan and zoom - the Ken Burns Effect. Export as movie and download to your new iPod. Connect to a TV set. See how your photos make an impression. Create your slideshow with FotoMagico 1.2.5."

Technical details

FotoMagico 1.2.5 takes advantage of the new movie playback capabilities of the latest iPod generation. A new export preset allows users to create a movie in the right format for downloading to the new iPod from slideshows they authored in FotoMagico. Titles, pan & zoom animation, transitions and the sound track are preserved in the best possible quality. These movies can be played on the built in screen or if the iPod is connected to a TV set in a quality that surpasses conventional VHS.
