You can only put 99 images (jpeg's) on a VCD, but if you make the images into a mpeg-1 VCD file, than you can put as many pictures you want to display in 74 or 80 minutes. However, 99 is the max number of "tracks" the (s)VCD can have.

Using Nero I put 600 pictures on a VCD. I had each play for 3 seconds, or you could choose the infinite time and use the "Next" "Previous" buttons to select.

The 99 picture limit is for selections to show on menus. The problem with putting on more pictures is you always have to start at the beginning.

Do not use Nero for photo Album!
The WinOnCD 3.7 or 3.8 is much better.
You can put 99 pictures in one album and you can have 8 albums. The pictures will be selectable from the 2 level menu.
With the version 3.8 you can put music or any other audio commentary on the album.

Hi,

Anyone can point me to a link where I can get WinOnCD 3.8PE here in the US?

I went to the Roxio (US) site and it doesn't mention anything about WinOnCD. It is only listed on the Roxio.de.

I like to check it out this piece of SW.

Please post it here or email me.

Thanks in advance.
