Photo MovieTheater Support Formats documentation details all input and output formats supported on macOS. Understanding format compatibility ensures you can work with your existing photos, music, and video clips without conversion issues on your Mac.
Input photo formats: Photo MovieTheater for Mac imports JPEG, PNG, TIFF, BMP, GIF (static and animated), HEIC/HEIF (iPhone photo format), and WebP images. RAW photo formats from major camera manufacturers (Canon CR2/CR3, Nikon NEF, Sony ARW, Fujifilm RAF, etc.) are also supported through automatic conversion on import. This broad support means virtually any digital photo can be used in your slideshows.
Input audio formats: Supported music and audio formats include MP3, AAC, WAV, AIFF, Apple Lossless (ALAC), FLAC, OGG, and WMA. Audio files in iTunes/Apple Music libraries can be directly imported. Multi-channel audio (stereo, 5.1, 7.1) is supported and will be properly mixed for slideshow output. Audio sample rates from 22.05kHz to 192kHz are handled automatically.
Input video formats: You can incorporate video clips into your photo slideshows using MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, WMV, FLV, MTS/M2TS (AVCHD), and WebM files. Video clips are displayed within the slideshow timeline and can include their original audio. This is useful for including short video greetings, wedding ceremony clips, or other video moments within a primarily photo-based slideshow on Mac.
Output formats: Photo MovieTheater for Mac exports slideshows to MP4 (H.264/H.265, the most universally compatible format), MOV (ProRes and H.264 options, ideal for Mac), MKV (high-quality archival with multiple audio/subtitle tracks), AVI (legacy Windows compatibility), and WMV (Windows Media). All formats support resolutions from 480p SD to 4K Ultra HD (3840x2160).
Device-specific export presets are available for iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Android devices, YouTube (optimized upload settings), Vimeo, Facebook, Instagram, and DVD/Blu-ray. These presets automatically configure resolution, bitrate, and codec settings for the best quality and compatibility on each platform.
DVD and Blu-ray output supports standard DVD-Video (MPEG-2, 720x480 NTSC or 720x576 PAL) and Blu-ray (H.264, 1920x1080) formats with custom menus, chapter markers, and background music. The built-in DVD authoring tools let you design disc menus with thumbnail buttons, custom backgrounds, and navigation controls, all from your Mac.
