This QuickTime based viewer will combine a QuickTime movie with an accompanying slide show, which can be streamed over the internet or recorded on to CD. A streaming QuickTime movie can be created in multiple versions to satisfy a variety of clients with differing connection speeds. The slide show can be produced from a single Flash swf file containing multiple slides, or a number of individual swf files, or indeed any combination. These Flash files need to be contained inside QuickTime 'mov' files, which is a simple export option from the Flash application. Bitmap images in jpg or gif format may also be used, or even another QuickTime movie!

The presentation can run through automatically (for a kiosk application for example), or the viewer can jump to sections using the scrollable 'slide tray' which is created automatically from a list of section titles and times. Rewind, Play, Pause and Mute buttons are also provided for the convenience of the viewer.
