If you only install digiKam, you will not be able to encode and render the mpeg slideshow.
Install the required packages
sudo apt-get install imagemagick mjpegtools music123 ffmpeg digikam
2. Open digiKam, select Tools -> Create MPEG Slideshow
3. From here on out, just select the file you want to save as (output file), add the pictures you want in the slideshow using the giant 'Add' button, and include an audio track if you're so inclined.
Note: If you just install digikam, it will not install mjpegtools or music123 which it needs to do the encoding. Also, this installs the full imagenagick, as opposed to the compact libraries.

I've installed all the required packages. I do not seem to have the menu under tools to create the MPEG Slideshow.
Anyone know what the kipi plugin for the slideshow shows up as under Settings->Configure DigiKam->Kipi Plugins?
I don't see anything that says slideshow.
Thanks.
Ya, I had the same problem and came across this post. You either gotta downgrade from digiKam 0.10 or use some other software.
