Roger, TV*SHOW only allow speech of any text file you give it, but the Director does allow IFF control in multitasking while showing and transitioning between picture plus other visual stuff.

The next release of TV*SHOW will support ANIM events in its scripts. We would have liked to included ANIM support in the current release, but writing an ANIM player is a non-trivial task especially with five ANIM types in existance. Placing the source for an ANIM player in the public domain would go a long way in making ANIM the de facto animation file standard. Zuma Group \EX

TV*SHOW scripts do not support Music Events….yet. However, TV*SHOW will multitask with music programs so it is possible for you to have a musical background along with your slideshow. The next release of TV*SHOW will support ANIM and SMUS in its scripts. Zuma Group
