Abstract:
1. A method of composing a slide show, comprising the steps of: accessing a plurality of digital images; encoding each of the plurality of digital images to generate a normal resolution image portion and a high resolution image portion; multiplexing each corresponding normal and high resolution image portion to generate a single high resolution still image; determining a time parameter for each of the high resolution still images; and concatenating the plurality of high resolution still images to generate a silent slide show in accordance with the determined time parameters and employing at least one padding pack, wherein the number of padding packs NP is determined by the algorithm: wherein T is a number of seconds of display, NN is a number of packs holding the normal resolution image portion, and NH is a number of packs holding the high resolution image portion.
