Two questions actually:
[1] I have created a slide show with pictures and music. When I play the show on my PC everything is fine but when I burn it to a DVD and play on the TV I get picture and/or music breakup with some transition effects but not all. Anyone have any suggestions?
[2] My pictures are RAW photos converted to JPEGs and most are 7MB to 12MB in size. Are these to big and if so what is a "reasonable" size. I am displaying the show on a 52 inch plasma.

Thanks

1. Have you tried specifying the highest quality encoding option (using the Alternate encoder) on Step 3 of the "Burn Disk" wizard?

Also, try going into View > Options, Advanced and changing the DVD MPEG Audio Setting as that can affect playback on some players.


2. Source image size does not make any difference when you are burning in DVD format (as PixPlay converts them automatically).

If you are burning in PC format (i.e. for computers) you can choose the option to automatically resize large images (by clicking the "PC Slideshow Options" button when burning).

Changing the DVD audio format to AC3 fixed the problem.
Thanks again for your help.
