"Shake" effect?
This is a kind of 101 question, but I've not been successful implementing it.
During a harmonica trill in a song, I'd like the slide to appear to "shake" with the music.
Logically enough, I made a bunch of copies of the slide, changed the transitions to cut/0, and had it so the odd slides in the sequence are the original photo, and the even slides involve a slight image shift using a small pan/zoom/rotate offset. So I've got alternating slide with an image shift. I then set each slide to display for times varying from .05 to .2 seconds in hopes of getting that "shake" effect.
No dice though. I have a pretty good nVidia card, but the shake just doesn't work.
Wondering what I've missed.

What is it doing? No shake? To slow/Fast? Don't do an actual move. Just leave the original photo alone and place every other photo in a different position depending on how much shake effect you want. Do this without movement, in other words let the starting position be the ending position. I think .05 is good slide length.

Worked for me.
Make sure you've got the shifted versions of the slide having their start and end positions the same with an offset from the original.

I have zero idea why I had this problem when I posted.
Did it again today, from scratch, same simple thing that I (thought I) did yesterday and it worked. Well, slight difference is that I had motion in the slides. Odd slides would pan/zoom from A to B; even slides would pan zoom from B to A. About .1 second per slide, cut/0 for transition.
Yesterday I'd tried no motion in slides, just cutting from A to B and back to A.
Thanks for help on something I should have been ashamed to even ask about.

Wrong! Never feel bad about asking about stuff -- at the time you asked it, you had something that didn't work as expected. I can't count the number of times I've asked something that turned out to be obvious--after I'd seen it but not until. And if one person has a question there's a good chance there are others with the same question but not brave enough to even post it. So, keep asking! (Heck, occasionally I even beat Mikey to the answer--yeah, not often but he has to sleep at some point.... doesn't he?)

Dick is right on with this. All questions are valid to anyone of us at any given point in time ...Not to mention that there is a fine line between my age and "Duh".

Hummm, I don't know Debbie, I just tried it and it played ok. Try playing it in the default Presenter screen. When I was making it I had problems previewing it full screen within proshow. I have no Idea why because once I uploaded it it played fine both full screen and default presenter screen.

Ben,
I got the same results as Debbie as far as the stopping and buffering, but just thought it was on my end since I had a lot of things open at the time. This time I tried it with only the site open but same results. ???

I created the show in ver 3.1 2018. Which version(s) are you guys using? I am not having any problems viewing the uploaded show.
Anybody else notice the new look to the Photodex site?? I wonder if they've updated presenter???
EDIT: I just tried to watch my contest winner and it did what you all are describing. It stopped playing mid way and then told me it was "waiting for more data"
