Hi
I want to put a load of photos on a dvd and be able to look at them on tv.I tried it once just using Nero (vcd) and they came out awful.
Any tips or software (free if poss) you can recommend.

Cheers
Paul.

This is highly rated.

How about http://www.ulead.co.uk/dps/runme.htm

Okay,thanks.
Have you had any experience of either?

Sorry for late reply.


Tried Pro Show Gold as it looked pretty good but couldn't get it to produce a playable DVD - think it was because it kept setting DVD type to DVD-ROM. I'm sure with a bit more effort I could get it to work. Rendering time is much quicker than Ulead (Ulead took ~10 hours for a 3.5 GB disk).

Ran out of time so upgraded from my previous Ulead DVD Picture Show 2 to version 4. Version 4 is much much better. Crashed a few times on me producing the monster show above (not during the rendering though fortunately) but end result was excellent.

Bottom line is both should be able to do the job. Try the full demo version of Pro Show Gold first - nothing to lose.

Think Ulead have demo version as well.

So I guess Ulead gets my vote.

Cheers
