I am looking for software to make slideshows/presentations on CentOS, incorporating photos, videos and text (possibly also music) allowing for transition effects etc. I'd like to be able to drag and drop/rearrange photos etc. from different folders into a timeline and eventually end up with something I can show. Ideally without having to make copies of photos and store them in a folder specific for this but drag and drop from whatever folder the photo etc. already exists in.
Impress and similar PowerPoint-like software excluded.
I have found a few packages on the net but nothing that is still being developed.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

What you are describing *IS* what LibreOffice's Impress does.

I am looking for something that is more capable than Impress. Although I use LibreOffice/OpenOffice daily, Impress does not address this need.
<SNIP> [Denniston, Todd A CIV NAVSURFWARCENDIV Crane, JXVS] The only things I can think of that are not 'PowerPoint-like software' and have a chance at doing *all* of the things you list are video/DVD creation programs, though some of those probably 'make copies of photos and store them in a folder specific for this'. They will probably require you to do a 'render' at the end before giving the presentation, and most folks will need you to render it before you send it, but hey I think they might give you most of what you asked for including not being PowerPoint.

Good luck.
