Yikes! My father-in-law's 95th birthday is this weekend (Jan. 14, 2012) and I'm making a silent slide show to play as a backdrop to the party. But - how can I set the show to re-play (loop)?
Please help!!

In MyDVD (Create DVDs), click on File/New Project, and select DVD, no menus.  Bring in your VideoWave production, and burn it.  Your movie will loop until you stop it.
Life is good!

Hi - thanks very much! I was hoping to loop a slideshow without using videowave, because the slides are different aspect ratios, and the ones in portrait style get cut off on top. Still, this will help enormously (whew!).

That's an old problem usually solved via this  (link).

Note that all of the options can do batch processing.
Regardless of what I say about computer maintenance, there is no need to defrag a solid state hard drive.
