We tested Photo Slideshow Maker very intensive. Especially on all possible output formats which the program has to offer. Photo Slideshow Maker is a really great program to make animated slideshows from your photos as video clips and is very easy to use. You can start right away to add pictures, music and even add a random animation between each picture to the next one. It can be as well limited diverted used to create banners or other kind of animations where images plays a role such as presentations. It can be very time intensive when it comes to the point judge quality versus output format settings and the result filesize by web presentations, where filesize is a matter of internet speed and time. Especially while we prepared the used image material for the web optimized using PNGOUT on the 256 color png's screenshots. For creating video slideshows on CD/DVD's it's not a factor.


Pro:
+ very easy to use program gui. You don't need to spend much time until you know all functions and can start right away to create great slideshows.
+ easy understandable program help included.
+ all checkboxes, functions and options in the menus are well documented with tips by placing the mouse over the items.
+ multilanguage support.
+ possibility to rotate pictures within the program. No picture editing software required.
+ drag'n'prop adding photos, music and move the photos to every position you like to show them up.
+ preview function works right away without delay.
+ an extensive variety of presetted and supported output file formats.
+ advanced parameters can be set for all kind of output file formats.
+ You can create for all kind of media devices very cool looking slideshows YouTube, iPad, iPhone, iPod and etc.
+ if you have a lot of pictures added and want to do changes, by placing the mouse cursor over a image sequence, it shows the filename of the picture. Which is very helpful in some cases.
+ when you edit a photo in a 3th application while in Photo Slideshow Maker the photo is already added, it updates by self before creating an output file. You don't need for this to remove and re-add the picture. If you see in preview anything which you want change so you can do it in your image editor software anytime and save it. The image updates inside Photo Slideshow Maker.

Contra:
- projects can not be saved to reopen and edit later
- custom output file profiles can not be saved
- The effects "Transition", a variety of effects, can not be selected per picture and per project. You can only activate/deactivate random or dissolve Transition for the entire show between the photos.
- for flash as output format, to embed into websites, the quality versus filesize gives no well results. By our sample we got a 8 mb flash file output size in good quality or 2 mb in unusable bad quality. The source picture files had a filesize all together of 372 kb png/images. On the other hand, professional Flash tools cost twice as much as Photo Slideshow Maker does and supporting only swf.
- high sampling smaller resolution for example 900px x 900px images as source to YouTube HD or other formats cuts big parts of the pictures while downwards it re-size the sources well into the slideshow.

Conclusion: Xilisoft Photo Slideshow Maker is exactly as advertised: Make Photo Movies as Easy as ever You can Imagine.
