Can I create a slide show of photographs on a DVD that can be viewed on a TV/DVD player with Creator 9? Everything I have seems to work great as long as I want to view the DVD on a computer.

(Be kind. This is all new to me smile.gif

Thanks,
Willi

You have to choose the correct setting. It then makes a compliant DVD Video, that should play on a settop player. In videowave choose file, output as, for the options, Mpeg2 for DVD best quality. That shuld do it.

Here is something that may help.

Thanks for the hints. I'll poke around some on the settings. The link may not help. It assumes I have MyDVD. I have a Dell OEM Creator version and when I click on MyDVD, I get a "thoughful" "If you'd like to purchase this..." dialog. (Not to be ungrateful, but this seems like a somewhat slimy sales tactic and has the opposite reaction of wanting to push the purchase button with me.)

IMO software companys subsidise the pc makers with oem software. That is why the pc is cheaper, look at all the crap you get loaded on it!
You do have the option of buying the Dell system without the OS and preloaded software next time.

You're preaching in the wrong place.  You need to preach on Dell's site.  This isn't it.

Aha, you left out that little tidbit in your previous posts. unsure.gif Dell has several versions of the "lite" and each has different capabilities. Perhaps yours does not have the ability to burn to a DVD?

Suggestion. Create a system restore point. Remove those lite versions and download the EMC 9 trial. See of you like it. If not, remove it. You should be able to reinstall the lite versions from your Dell installation disc/partition if you wish.

That isn't a full "full" suite or deluxe version either!

I suppose it could be dell that is too cheap to add the full package. It writes DVDs and CDs. There's some flakeyness in there somewhere though. (Maybe it's not worth providing oem software to them?)

Although, my original question was to find out if I buy the full Creator 9, will it do what I want? Not to get what I have to do it. I didn't want to buy it and then find out there's still another piece that I need.
