Running OS 1.5.4 on 24" Imac, I’m attempting to generate a "horizontal slideshow" from bridge-selected files in Photoshop CS3.
[Sounded like the problem in this post: <http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b5a9fe/2> but on re-reading I’ve decided it’s different so I’m giving it it’s own thread, with more detail…]
Here’s my experience:
1) Description and title show up for a second on the first slide, then revert to just the blank template on that and all subsequent slides (title: [blank] description: [blank]….
Hitting "refresh" produces the descriptive metadata for a tantalizing moment, then it’ s back to the blank template for this and all subsequent slides. It does this both for Safari and Firefox.
You can view this behavior in a slideshow at <http://oasisdesign.net/projects/earthtoilet/>
If it asks for a password, use—
user:earthling
pass: draf1 )
"preserve all metadata" is checked.
I’ve tried all combinations of checking/ unchecking "title, description, filename" for labeling…also, making slideshows with just one or two slides to reduce the chance that it’s a weird character issue of the type some other folks have experienced…
2) additionally, the web gallery is not respecting the manual sort order in Bridge, which is the source of the files. The help files say the slideshow should follow the manual sort order in Bridge.
3) Finally, metadata entered in bridge metadata tab sometimes vanishes, sometimes metadata entered in file info wouldn’t show in the metadata tab.
Thanks for your help!!

BTW, here’s the related issues I found:

….After some investigation, I found that the descriptions were disappearing only for photos that had a Return / Line Break in the description. If you go back and make sure all of your descriptions are a single line, it works fine….
