I am trying out the downloaded sample and I love the product. If I put pics on a DVD at the end of one month, can I then add the next month's pics on the same disc to follow the previous month's pics. I want to keep each of my grandchildren's pics on a DVD and I would like to download the pics each month.

Thanks. I want to order the full program but need to know if I can do what I want to do.

Hi Rose

Many DVD players do not like disks that have not been "finalized" or contain multiple burn sessions. Finalizing means that you write a bit of information saying that the disk is no longer writeable. Multiple sessions mean that you burn some data onto the disk one day, and some more the next...

One of our primary goals with PixPlay is maximizing compatibility with DVD players, for this reason we do not support burning of multiple sessions to the same disk. You should just burn your old and new pics to a new disk.


Also, (just in case it is not clear) slideshows disks are not a substitute for back up. Don't delete your originals after outputting your slideshow to DVD.
