    Ubuntu 24.04, Rec for slideshow video creator.

    I'm using Ubuntu 24.04 with Gnome and Wayland. I got some images I want to turn into a slideshow video like an mp4 file. I would like an app where I specify the following:
    * location of a directory of images,
    * length of time for each image
    * fade-out fade-in between images

    Then I hit "GO" and it spits out an mp4 file (or some other widely compatible video format). Know any Linux compatible app that can do this?

    I don't need to add any audio.

    I was thinking of using a Play Store app but I don't like their privacy policies.

    I searched Flathub and didn't find anything. Various image viewers but no slideshow video creators that I could see.

    ffmpeg can do this. Search for "slideshow video ffmpeg" and you'll find tutorials and examples.

    I'm a tech noob so using ffmpeg looks a little too much learning curve for me. I'll keep searching for a GUI app.

    A video editing program should be able to do that fairly easily.

    Check out FFQueue

    It's available in the App Center

    or

    Code:
    snap install ffqueue
    "Just because you can do it doesn't mean you should do it."

    You can try qslideshow incorporated in qdvdauthor (sf.net/p/qdvd) it uses the script dvd-slideshow.
