Hello,

I'm having problems with the new version 4.10 of PixPlay.I have been previously been using v 3.02 which did not give the problem explained below that v 4.10 now gives me.

The slideshow looks good on the computer both with the PixPlay preview or a DVD with the slideshow burned onto it.

However when it is shown on the TV with a regular DVD player at least 10 - 15% of the image is missing (i.e - border areas).

With the old version (3.02) when I put in a "border value" and checked the "Add the following borders etc" box I got basically the whole area of all frames to be shown on the TV .

However with the new version 4.10 regardless of what value I put in, only about 4 or 5 frames out of over 100 frames will respond any form border reduction.
In other words if I put in a value of H:5% ; V:4% as against
H:30% ; V:20% the vast majority of frames look the same while only 4 or 5 show any change with a greater border area.

Why is this happening?Your help is needed soonest.

Thanks,
Bill.

Hi Nigel,

After I sent the post to you folks I found out that the "Auto crop" box was selected. After I disabled it I got the border values to work OK for TV viewing.

Thanks for your help.

Bill.

Hi Bill

Borders are not used if you are using image motion effects.

Also go into Frame > Frame Properties, Borders and disable the auto-cropping option.
