Help with ULEAD Pictureshow!

[bertmartin]

I have 2 slideshows I made with DVD Pictureshow 2 and now I want to combine them on 1 DVD with a menu. I hope I am wrong but I cant seem to add 2 slideshows together. It only allows me to open one. I can open one and add a new slideshow, but just cant add one already saved. Is there a work around so I wont have to recreate the second slideshow again?

Are you saying that you have 2 slideshows within the same Pictureshow? Or 2 seperatly saved Pictureshows each with 1 slideshow? I have tried something similar to this before and could not do it!! I ended up burning it to a DVD-RW (with archiving the photos and music) and then pulled the 2nd slidshow files from the burned DVD-RW back into Pictureshow2.

Bummer
ULEAD allows you to import Photo Explorer slideshows (and add to the project) but not Pictureshow saved slideshows. They need to fix this!!
Thanks for feedback.

Since Ulead PhotoExplorer is included with DVD PictureShow 2, I create all my slideshows using Ulead PhotoExplorer:

That way - I can import .UES slideshows into DVD PictureShow 2 as needed.

Thanks Jerry
I loaded Photo Explorer and recreated the slideshow, saved it, and imported it into Pictureshow. Seems convoluted but it works. Next time I will add all possible slideshow titles when I start a project. I sent ULEAD a comment about fixing this defect. Two other issues I have with the program are:
1. Sorting slides is difficult because you cant maximize the sorting window
2. There is no indication of total slideshow elapsed time so I can adjust music length.
Thanks, Bert

I guess I personally don't consider it a "defect" because Ulead PhotoExplorer is designed to be a true media management tool and offers more flexible slideshow options (computer-based + TV slideshows).

So I use Ulead PhotoExplorer for all of my media management.

Not just for slides, but for audio, video, etc.
