In response, I might suggest looking at a solution from another
point of view. That is, using a slide projector controller to
present the slides in just the right time and sequence, and then
recording the presentation.
	There have been some pretty sophisticated 'carousel 
controllers' on the market with the prices getting lower
all the time. These devices let you control multiple carousels
and let you fade in/out, dissolve from one slide to another,
project multiple images, overlay, etc. And these functions are all
programmable. So you could program it thru trial and error until
you were happy with the results and then tape it.
	An even cheaper method would be to use a synchronizing
device that lets you place timing marks on an audio tape channel
to trigger the carousel tray.
