mad.gif Using EMC10, I created 9 separate photo slideshows and then created video files of those slideshows.  I then select MyDVD from the EMC10 main menu, and select each of those video files to put on the DVD.  I can edit the background, add audio, no problem.  Yet whenever I preview, or even burn the DVD, it sometimes does not continue to play the slideshow movies in order; sometimes plays out of order or returns to the DVD menu.  I've check the properties of the project ot ensure it plays "all movies on this project".  I've even check the settings of each imported movie to ensure the next slideshow is selected in the "Play After" drop down.   What am I doing wrong and why won't it play all of them in order w/o returning to the menu?  HEEEELLPPPPP!!! angry.gif

Have you tried giving each title an alphanumeric name?

It may sound strange but most players will play in a different order to how you selected the files, so if you  called them  001Title1, 002Title2, etc - it should play in that order
If it ain't broke, fiddle with it until it breaks, then fiddle with it until you get it fixed

Hhmmmm... to be honest I haven't, but I'll certainly give it a shot.  If all else fails guess I can always go back to my oder ver of MyDVD... At least I know that works when I select Play All.  Thanks

In MyDVD, select File|Project Settings. You selected the "Play movie and all remaining movies in the project" option?

Come back and let us know - if it doesn't it's time for some head-scratching wink.gif

I don't think that applies to video rolleyes.gif they should play in the order they were added to the menu

Ding... Ding... Ding.. Ding.... and the winner is myguggi.  It in fact was attributed the way I add the files to the project.  Before I believe I was selecting "All" in the directory that I saved the slideshows.  But adding them in the order I wanted them did prove to resolve the problem.  Thanks everyone!
