okay, so my first attempt at burning my slideshow into a dvd didn't work! Everything looked like it was going fine, until I put it into the dvd player and NOTHING! Help, I am doing the slideshow for the soccer banquet and I have to have it done before Feb 22nd!
Assuming the burn process completed correctly, the biggest problem tends to be the compatability of the DVD disc with the DVD player or the use of unbranded/economy discs which can be prone to very high failure rates.
What brand of discs are you using and what is the make/model of the DVD player.
I always do my initial burns to good quality rewriteable (DVD-RW) discs.
This way I can erase the discs and reuse them.
Once I have the movie as I want it and the menus etc play OK on a rewriteable, I use the rewriteble disc as a master to create further copies on good quality DVD-R disc.
I do not use, in my case Movie Edit Pro, to burn the final discs.
