I tested the free version of the Icecream Video Editor out of curiously, added for 4 slides and a slide-in "motion". Then added a custom Xara slider with the same photos; a slightly different transition/motion. You can see the effect/delay in the page load with the video taking its time to load.
The Xara slider needs (in this example) just ONE line of code.
@E you are welcome to play around with the example; you will see it is exported with a slide-in transition, but other than that it is standard Xara functionality.

Cheers Gary, I think the 0.5MB for the slider images slightly beats the 120MB video. Even one of Xara's own sliders would knock spots off.

Thanks Gary,
You have convinced me that it would be better to use Xara generated displays as opposed to 20 odd MP4's.
Now I just have to get my head around just how to go about doing that, but as you say, you have pointed me in the right direction :-)
Thanks

I have added a short note on how to embed the custom Xara slider into any main website and provided a download of the example I posted here: https://initiostar.co.uk/demo/Icecream-Video/
Hopefully, this allows you to have a go and test the approach; there are quite a few different additional controls one can add, but this should get you started.
