If so, those will not play in most dvd players. Videos have to be burned using a DVD authoring program for dvd players to play them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gi7omy Posted June 24, 2007 Report Share Posted June 24, 2007 I think you've confused the purpose of backup - to use anything from that you have to extract the photos back to the computer (it's just an archive for storage) and then create a slideshow using Videowave Backup files are just that - backups and not meant for actual use in that format Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
