Here is a partial answer to your problem:

• You are correct that currently you DO need Flash to run multi-state objects (MSOs) and video/audio.
• Yes, slideshows are normally created with MSOs
• Yes, fixed layout EPUB (FXL) is a good option for fully interactive documents. However, it requires the person to have a compatible EPUB reader.

You can get more information in this downloadable PDF document created by our friends at Ajar.
