Cant Burn Slide Show Movies

[Tubby]

Please can you help

I have had roxio for years. In 2011 we had a new PC and ordered Roxio NXT for that PC. I use this for photos, making to slide shows and adding to a DVD with menus. This has always suited me fine being software I have found easy to use the the upgrade should have been a smooth transition.

I have made one DVD with one video of my niece on, which was easy and worked. I then made one but had to put to two DVDs our Florida holiday

I am and was disappointed that the Florida photos went on 2d disks as it doesn't work as I want. This year though I have encountered two issues which I hope you can assist me with

1 - New Holiday DVD 2013

I made 8 short photo slide shows and put them to a DVD.

Everytime this got to 50% it closed down Roxio.

I have tried it on all speeds, the file sizes are:

The overall disc was:

It had capacity on the disc still so Roxio said but wouldnt burn

1195KB, 810KB, 1124KB, 900KB, 865KB, 1749KB, 1134KB,

1101KB

Whole disk total size 12730KB

I had to split it to 4 disks

but its not the point, why ???

 

2 - Back up DVD

I backed up some Roxio files I have made previously which have been saved to DVD. I cant find one DVD but I thought that will be ok, I backed up my computer.

I plugged in the external hard drive, saw the photos and the files... When I open it its all symbols like below.

How can I get the Roxio saved short videos, saved to a whole menu suite with music previously burnt to disk re burnt to a disk?

 

 

I don't understand why it is not working as I wish or I have used before, its newer the PC is a high capacity powerful gaming PC so more than able to deal with this. Years a go I even made a DVD from a film and photos and it all wored.

I am so upset as its taken hours and it just doesn't work as I wish it would.

Please can you help me?

Thanks

I am sorry but I don't understand most of your post. Exactly what is it you are trying to do: simply archive your photos, create a video slideshow or what? Ecactly how are you doing it? Perhaps a step-by-step description would help.

I have no idea what the above text in quotes is supposed to mean/show? What are the numbers?

 

You "backup DVD" section is also very confusing? What symbols are you talking about?

Disc Authoring is based on time TIME

 

Files sizes have nothing to do with it.
