I began using Amaze in Sept. 2009 on Vista -- worked like a charm; loved it. We upgraded to Windows 7 last week. I did a clean install and then reinstalled Amaze.

Amaze still behaves properly in 3 of the 4 modes; however, we're experiencing odd behavior in the multimedia slideshow mode. Amaze displays the designated # of "slides" in the grid, but instead of images, we see just white space inside each slide frame. Moreover, the transition flickers rapidly through each slide -- about 1/2 second for each -- with no transition effects. It does properly display filename and date, and outlines the active slide, according to those options.

I have tried turning on & off the transition effects, altering display time for each slide, changing the number of slides horizontally & vertically, turning on & off the filename display option... just about every combination of settings for that mode. Also tried using a different image directory. Same behavior each time.

Lastly, I uninstalled & then reinstalled Amaze, with no effect.

The oddest part of all this is that I also have Smart Pix Manager 11.1 installed, and the slideshow works perfectly in SPM.

Right now, I've disabled the Amaze slideshow & am using the other 3 modes. But slideshow is our favorite.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
RH

Yes, sorry. It's Amaze v. 7.01, downloaded from Xequte on Dec. 20, 2009. -- RH
Addition: Please disregard comments about transition effects. I was tinkering with the single-photo display at the same time & getting my experiments mixed up. (Single-photo works w/ no problems under Win7, as noted.) -- RH

Hi RH

I'll have to look into your failing multiple image slideshow when we do the next update.
