Ulead PictureShow CD's Won't Play?

[donires]

I bought DVD Pictureshow to put my pictures on, sounds pretty easy. Everything works allright but when I put the CD in my DVD player it thinks it's a music CD. I have a newer Dell system with Roxy basic and powerDVD installed, a samsung DVD/CDRW combo, and a pioneer dv-525 DVD player, all of which are supposed to be compatible with this software. So I gave the software to my buddy to try it on his system and it worked fine. He gave me the disk and it also play on my DVD? So I am wondering what need to be configured on my system to make the writer write the disks correctly? I tried CDR CDRW. al\ny insight would be greatly appreciated, DON.

The crystal ball seems to be low on power, so can you just tell us the model number of your samsung writer?

Yes. It's the sm-308b, I am also running WIN XP

Have you downloaded the patches for PictureShow?Also in PictureShow after you author a project and you are about to burn it will ask you which
drive you want to use,make sure you select "Samsung SM-308" and
in Menu>Preferences> check"VCD Compliant"

I downloaded the updates, checked the burner... Finally got it to work after I saved the file and burned it with the Disk Image Recorder on a CD/RW. After I got that to work the CD/R I burned earlier started to work?This software seem pretty temperamental, I hear Nero us much more stable for burning VCD's, is this true? Anyway thank you for your responses, Don.

Nero can make a photo cd but with no music(or narration)and its' menus'
won't play on all vcd players,but for video vcds it's great.
