When I play back the Pixplay video, it doesn't always show the full pictures. It sometimes doesn't move far enough up to the top of the photo and so cuts heads off.

There are two main possibilities for images being cut-off:

- The image is being "Auto-cropped": On Step 3 of the Burn DVD format wizard, click the "Other Settings" button and adjust the horitzontal and vertical margins option.

- Your DVD Player/TV does not display the full frame of the VCD: You may be able to adjust this on your TV, but alternatively on EDIT>REMOVE BORDER WIZARD specify a fram margin to add a border area around the frame.

Hi Jim, I tried what you said but it seems to be that some of the Motion Effects display only the centre of photos and do not move up or down the photo.

If you use the "TEST BUTTON" before burning the slideshow ---does it play OK on the computer?

I have tried twice to send you my problem but it seems I am not doing it correctly. I hope this works.
I downloaded a power point slide show to your software and followed the directions and it worked but I have half of the pictures on each slide and half of the text. I tried the auto crop button to off but I could not see the horz. and verital that was in one of the form answer.
I do need an answer! My deadlineis near and I got this so I could move powerpoint to burn on a dvd for any tv or computer that does not have powerpoint Help!

First--DVD PixPlay will not import transitions, background
music, animations or other native PowerPoint features.

So you will have to manually add the background music and transitions.

Second--With version 4.01 of DVD PIXPLAY do the following to change the vertical and horitzonal size:

From the Main toolbar select VIEW>OPTIONS>OTHER OPTIONS>ADVANCE OPTIONS>CHECK THE BOX "ADD THE FOLLOWING BORDERS TO THE SLIDESHOW WHEN BURNING." set to what border you want

Your pictures are probably large so you should set the DEFAULT DISPLAY TIME TO at least 5-10 seconds.

For those pictures where you are losing the heads-- try using IMAGE MOTION EFFECT which goes from Top to Center.

Hi Dkplo

In DVD PixPlay select the particular image where parts are not showing. Select Frame > Frame Properties, Motion Effect tab.

On that page choose a different motion effect that shows all of the frame that you like. Or create your own custom start and end position.

If there are any particular motion effects that do not appear to show all that they should, please send me a screenshot of the window.

(To create a screenshot display the program with the problem visible then select PrintScreen (or PrtScr) on the top of your keyboard. Using Microsoft Word or an image editor such as Paint, select Paste. Save the file, if possible as a JPEG if you are using an image editor and send it to us)
