How to loop a backgroud audio in the picture slide show

I can't find the method to loop a backgroud audio in the picture slide show.

Of course I can set a backgroud audio loop in the menu page.

But I also want to loop a backgroud audio when the pictures show in the slide show.

Is there any funtion or tip in DVD Architect?

Apparently not... at least none I can fine for picture slide shows. You can with regular DVD's, I do that all the time.

A simple work around is first determine the length of your slide show down to the second. Then render whatever songs or songs you want as a background as a MP3 in Vegas. Next load all the images you wish in the slide show in the right pane and at the very bottom locate the song or songs you made into one track using the explorer. Just click on the folder icon under background audio

If you get the music to the size you would like, then use the "fit slideshow to audio button.

There's also the Looped box on the page properties tab, right side window. Applies to the BAckground audio file.
Haven;t gotten a truly smooth loop as it gaps at the end of every go 'round. But it does save media space and gives a loop. Would be better if it was seamless - v2?

It won't gap if you set length manually to exact size of audio clip.
