Photo Slideshows Go High-Definition
"ProShow Gold and ProShow Producer, software programs beloved by photographers, now supports burning to high-definition Blu-ray discs, the next-generation DVD discs.
We know what a difference high-def makes with video. But for photos? There's no such thing as a high-def JPG. So what's the big deal? "You have six times the resolution, or six times as many dots. You see more definition, more colors. Your show is sharper," says Paul Schmidt, founder and president of Austin-based Photodex, maker of the programs."

Five Star Rating - ProShow Gold
"I've tried a few slideshow programs and this is by far the most extensive. Whilst the others were part of a multi-feature program, ProShow Gold is dedicated to slideshow production.
The elements are very good and a great slideshow can be produced with a fluent knowledge of the system."

Digital Home Thoughts
To Quad or Not to Quad
"ProShow Gold is a photo slideshow application that creates extremely high-quality video output, and it's also well-known for its ability to scale to multiple cores. I took a batch of 30 photos and output them to a 1080p video file (1920 x 1200 resolution) with high-quality encoding. The ProShow Gold test really showed the power of four cores: the 1080p encoding process was finished in 6 minutes 13 seconds (0.48x realtime) which is an impressive 38% faster."
