Missing pictures in burnerd slide shows.

[cruisedj]

I have a similar problem, I created 2 slide shows both in Videowave, both show perfect in the preview on videowave. I then created a menu in MYDVD and added both shows to the Menu, and played both in the preview and both show as perfect. However, after burning and then playing on my DVD player, I get a blank (missing photo(s)) which is always at photo number 21 in both productions, only 1 or2 photo's are missing then the show continues with no further problems.

 

I have checked the DVD and there seems no scratches, I am using Maxell DVD+RW 120min 4.7gb Data

DVDs

 

I have also tried Philips DVD-RW disks, but my Sony DVD player does not seem to like the -RW disks for some reason, hence I use the +RW.

 

Any Idears on this strange one.

When you go to burn in MyDVD, burn to an ISO file. Once the file encodes, copy it to the disc using Creator Classic or Video Copy and Convert. This separates the encoding from the burning and has solved similar issues in the past.

Moral there is don't use RW, and certainly not Maxell - use Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden R (+ or -)

Thanks for your adivce. I am afraid this is all new to me and it is my first try at creating DVDs to watch on the TV from the DVD player, Yesterday (before your replies) I also tried burning to a Philips DVD-RW and also to a Philips DVD+RW. I created a menu with the two slideshows included and made 2 burns one slideshow had one photo missing but the other slideshow was complete and okay on the first burn and on the second burn the missing photo was missing from the other slideshow. However, I will follow your advice's and keep my fingers crossed.

 

Thanks again

At least one person solved a problem like this by switching from hardware to software render (under Options)
