So I signed up for iCloud Photo Library (another thorny issue but not the one I'm posting about here). As some of my photos from my Mac stated to filter through to my iOS devices, I encountered Memories for the first time when it offered up an example of a trip we went a few months ago. Thought it looked quite promising.
So I start fiddling with the Custom settings: selecting the 80 or so photos and videos I want as part of the movie it creates, changing the title and font and adding my own music. So it creates the roughly 4 minute movie and starts to play on my iPad, but less than half way through I start getting black screens or black screens with a white dividing line representing split image effects which are just not loading in at all. Sometimes I get white flashes which is an attempt at a transition effect, but in essence my movie rattles on for the majority of its running time utterly failing to load even a single one of the remaining images. The music is unaffected.
I play the movie again and this time the same thing happens but almost from the opening images. It recovers a little later to show a brief glimpse of a video clip then returns to black screens. I exit out and come back in which forces the Memory to download again. This time I get broken bits but with behaviour different from the previous examples - i.e. the left picture of a split screen image doesn't load but the right one does.
It still falls out totally totally less than half way through however; that's consistent with all variants.
I've attached an image showing a broken frame though it is as you might imagine and the question I have is whether this is just a rubbish application not worth bothering with, or is the behaviour I am finding out of sync with the rest of your experience of this software?
Thanks,
Craig
