    LR3 / Slideshow

      How do you select multiple songs for the 'soundtrack' in a Slideshow ?

          You have to create a single track using music editing software. Garage band works really well.

            Lightroom doesn't support multiple audio tracks. Therefore, as other poster has indicated, you will need to use a third party application to join the tracks. Also, make sure that the new combined track is ripped as AAC or MP3, not Apple Lossless or FLAC as Lr doesn't support lossless formats. Yes, you can select them, but they either play like crap or not at all.

              Thanx so very much for the helpful info. How do you go about obtaining a third party application ?

              Any suggestions for third party ? 

              Thanx, once again !

                Hi,
                you can use http://http://www.ccla-soft.com/ to try music mixer 5 and generate a single track with 2 or 3 music files , but you need first to convert in wav and then when it's done to convert again in mp3 to be used in lightroom.
                BUT it is quite difficult to adjust the time of music with your pictures, it never coincide excactly , even if you check the box "adjust"
                If you find the solution, please let me know cos i would like to export a diaporama ( video mp4) to be seen on my plasma screen, that means HD and top quality.
