Maximum Length?

Hi KimuraCarter,
Welcome to the Community!

The "maximum" is limited only by the resources available on your PC to create the file, and those on your user's PC to view the published output. From a practical viewpoint, you should consider that the longer the project is, the more difficult it becomes to navigate through and find/fix issues during editing; for example, if an object like a highlight box becomes corrupted, it is easier to isolate it and correct it in a 30 slide project than in a 150 slide project.

The maximum, or optimum, number of slides may also vary based on how large hte project is in physical dimensions. A recorded movie at 1000pixels by 750pixels is going to max out your resources more quickly than one of a smaller size. Also, a movie that contains a lot of full-motion slides will nearly always be larger (bytes) than one made up entirely of screen backgrounds. And because slides can be set at a variety of "video quality" settings, a movie in which all slides' video quality is set to "High" will always be larger than the same physical sized movie with video quality set to "Standard" on all slides. Those are just a few considerations. I didn't mention the inclusion of audio, or many other items that can make a project larger or smaller, affecting the ability of your PC to edit it, or the end-users' PC to play it.

Hope this sheds a little light...
