Thanks for the reply and the beautiful theme! I just installed Redux 3.2.7 and can report with this version the the Title and Description is now in the Home page configuration for the slider, but the pictures are not showing.
I am having the same problem on a FRESH install of the latest theme version and WP 3.9. I can not get the slider to work and I have no caption, description, and textarea. All my images are 450 in width as spelled out in the documentation.
