Abstract: Tools and techniques for media portability and compatibility for different destination platforms are provided. These tools may receive commands to launch a media portability capability, and may receive source media as input for transformation. These tools may also receive indications of profile settings for specifying how to transform the source media for enhanced portability on destination systems for playback. The source media may be transformed in response to the profile setting, with the transformed media inserted into a document. The tools may then distribute the document to the destination system for playback.

Abstract: Technologies are described herein for synchronizing slide show events with audio. Data defining one or more animation events, slide transitions, or visual effects and an audio file to be played during the defined events is received. The audio file is processed to identify the audio events contained therein. Once the audio events in the audio file have been identified, the defined animation events are synchronized to the identified audio events using an audio synchronization scheme that includes data defining how the audio events are to be synchronized to the animation events. A user interface may be provided that allows a user to select an audio synchronization scheme to be applied to a presentation. A user interface may also be provided that allows a user to visually associate an animation event with any audio event identified within an audio file.
