Randomize Photos for slide show?

[Dick Campbell]

I have about 700 pix to go on the timeline to make a basic "show on the wall during dinner" (no audio) DVD for a client.

If I just put all the photos in a folder they will arrange alphabetically. Is there any way to rename them randomly, or an app that will scramble their order? Maybe a slide show app that does that?

You want this http://www.coremelt.com/products/products-for-final-cut-studio/imageflow-fx.html

I bought it and it works very well. It does have a randomize feature. I use it in Motion, then just open the Motion project up in FCP or export a QT from Motion. It doesn't give you that much in the way of fine controls but for what you want to do, it's perfect.
