[chris_kost]

ok, i have my slideshows on the my dvd menu, they play 100% in the preview mode, i go to burn on a dvd-r in mr pioneer 104 burner. everything seems to burns and it gets completely to the end. But when I try to search the disk is has nothing on it. The DVD says "free space: 0 bytes, "Total size 0 bytes. Can anyone help me understand what is going on and how to fix it.

 

Thanks,

Can you give us your exact steps in creating and burning so we can see what you have done. Also in which part of the program did you compile your slideshow?

I compiled two slideshows using Video Wave. I then added them to the My Menu window of MYDVD. Once on the My Menu Screen, I clicked on Preview and both slideshows played without a problem. I then clicked on the "burn" Button. Then next screen that came up was the Burn Project screen. I went through the steps and not I am trying to burn again.

 

Okay, I just went and upgraded the firmware to my dvd-rw and that took care of the problem. Thanks for you help anyway.

Great Chris, so glad you solved the problem. I know updating the firmware and drives are essential and we say it so much that sometimes we forget to mention it again. Good luck with your project.
