I have Photoshop Elements 2024. I want to create a slideshow that will continuously loop until I stop it. I have read through the documentation and forums and can't figure out how.  Thanks.

An Elements Slideshow creates an mp4 video file.  Whether you can loop such a file depends on how you play it.  For example, some video playback programs will allow you to loop the file on your computer.  Some TVs will also allow you to play a video file over a network or thumb drive in a loop.  Similarly, you could use authoring software to create a DVD that loops in your DVD player.  I suppose you could also export the slideshow to Facebook or Youtube where it could be looped.

It would also be possible to export a simple slideshow from Elements as an animated gif which could be looped when played through a web browser.

 

So, I guess my question for you is where do you want to display this slideshow and for what purpose?  You can't simply create a looping slideshow in Elements.

Thanks. Yes I just want to export to a thumb drive and play on a TV.  So I'll need to experiment to see what I can do.

Google presentation does it.   All the google stuff is free.

Just like what greg said- it all depends upon how it's going to be displayed.

I use use PowerPoint when I need looping stuff, like a slideshow.  The view is from Powerpoint 2019-  I have powerpooint 365 built into my school account but rarely use that account from home.
