slideshow on a svcd

[younso]

I have 200 pictures that I want to make into a slideshow. I have tried to make a svcd version with Nero. If I choose svcd Nero protests after 99 pictures. If I use NeroExpress and choose a slideshow on a svcd it forces the pictures into 3 chapters, the first 2 with 99 and the last one with the remaining 2 pictures. Why is this so? I mean the pictures total size is 400 MB so it cannot be a size problem. Would it be better to do it on a dvd instead?

Try VCD Easy

Why don't you make it as a regular VCD? Don't bother using Nero Express, do it straight in Nero Burning ROM.

Like I wrote, Nero Burning Rom limits the project to 99 pictures even on a vcd....

Works fine for me (Nero v.6.3.0.3). When you say about Nero Express splitting the pictures into chapters, that sounds unlikely. You probably meant NeroVision Express. Simple slideshow can be created without it. Either way, in your case it's either VCD or DVD, no need for SVCD.

I think I have worked it out. I can import 200 pictures in a vcd compilation, but as soon as I turn on the menu function Nero says that only the first 99 pictures will be included.

I wrote a slideshow as a vcd with the normal nero burning prog and it allowed me 1980 pictures before it was full

Max 99 chapters/title is allowed on VCD IIRC. There are proggies like "Memories on CD" or something like to help you make photo slide shows. I used Ulead VideoStudio once, and that came out pretty nice, but was a lot of work...

1980 slides is the VCD limit. Most slide show software including VCD easy should let you do this
