To change a video slideshow’s thumbnail:
Adding images to your slideshow
You can add images to already existing slideshows by clicking Add
Photos on the Slide Toolbar. In the Add Photos dialog box,
simply locate the image folder, select the image files to insert, and
then click Add.
Another way to add images to your slideshow is by acquiring
images from other imaging devices like scanners.
To acquire images using TWAIN or WIA:
1. Click Add Photos on the Slide Toolbar to open the Add
Photos dialog box.
2. Click Acquire and select TWAIN or WIA depending on the type
of scanner or digital camera you are using.
3. Follow the dialog box instructions to specify file names and folder
to use for saving images.
4. Make sure you select Add acquired images to slideshow.
Otherwise, the acquired images will only be saved to the
destination folder and will not be added to the slideshow you are
working on.
Right-click the video slideshow
thumbnail and then select Set as
Slideshow Thumbnail. Drag the
slider to the frame to use as your
slideshow thumbnail. Click OK.
Note: WIA (Windows Imaging Acquisition) is a feature in Microsoft
Windows ME and Windows XP that enables applications to directly
interact with imaging devices such as scanners or digital cameras. If
you have CD & DVD PictureShow installed in either of these Windows
systems and your imaging device is WIA compatible, you can directly
acquire images without the need to install device drivers.
