How large should my photos be for MAGIX PhotoStory?

Hi guys,

I'm going to make a photo slideshow using MAGIX PhotoStory. However, I'm not sure how small I should scale my pictures to (they were shot on a 10mp camera) in order to produce the best quality slideshow. I haven't decided whether the slideshow will be 1080p or 720p or even smaller, but I'm assuming that MAGIX PhotoStory will compress my photos in any event.

So, should I reduce my photos in photoshop to match the output video resolution (e.g. 1920x1080 for 1080p video), or should I import the original photos?

Thanks!

    Not sure how the program works, but you might as well give it the original files. It is quite likely that the files will be filtered by the program anyway—as a rule, you should avoid having multiple programs do the same thing (in your case, resizing an image).
