Slide Show

[dvnewbie]

Can anyone recommend a program for the following: I've made a DVD of home movies. I'd like to add to the same disk a slide show of still photos that the viewer can flip through on a television screen using the forward and back arrow keys on a DVD player remote (as opposed to putting them into a video where each picture is displayed for a pre-set period of time). I've been using Sonic MyDVD and Arcsoft Showbiz because they came bundled with my computer, but they don't seem to support this function. I don't want to spend a lot just to add this feature, though.

If there is a way to do what you are trying...I dont know it but someone on this site probably does. I'll tell you what you dont want (putting pictures for a pre-set time) just in case you change your mind. You can use windows movie maker(its free and reletively easy to use) to make the file and I think it ends up as a mpg ready to burn. Good luck.

I believe that there was a post on this a couple days ago, and the posters there sugested a program called Memories on TV.

The other option might be to build a menu structure with the photos on them, then you can forward and backward through the menus with the photos as the background.
