I'm playing with the pictures of changes, courtesy of Adywan and doubleofive, and setting them to music via PhotoDVD. I originally set it to Enya's best-of album [title escapes me], mainly because it was on my hard drive and I hadn't listened to it in years. Since my wife and friends think it's all sorts of heretical from almost every viewpoint, I may leave the soundtrack as it is.

The question occurs, though, of what TV format is most useful: 16x9 or 4x3. The comparison pictures are almost 4x3, making that natural, and I disabled all animation to keep the pictures as much in view as possible (loss only to overscan).

Would it be preferable to set the format to widescreen and then re-enable the horizontal animation? The picture would slowly drift from side to side for its five seconds' viewing instead of remaining stationary and filling almost all of the 4x3 screen.

(Having only a 4x3 TV, it's an academic question to me but I am curious about others' thoughts.)
