Until the new version of PixPlay comes out with more bells and whistles, below is a way you can burn multiple slideshows on one disc. I've used the Nero CD/DVD Burner program I have on my computer - if you have a different burner program, you may want to see if it has the same options:

When you're ready to "burn" in PixPlay - select the following settings: MPEG either 480x480 or typle in 800x800 for the "Custom Format"; "Standard" for the Output Quality; "Video type" is "MPEG-2"; place a check mark to select "Include Windows Autorun File"; Save file to Desktop using the drop window and click "Finish". Do this for each of the slideshows you've made in PixPlay.

Open Nero CDDVD Burner program. Select the following: "Make your own DVD video"; "Add video Files" - find you PixPlay MPEG files on your desktop, highlight and then click "Open" (do this for each of the slideshows you want to burn on the disk). When you're all done adding your video files, click "Next" and follow the instructions to design your menu and to burn the disc.

I've done this and the end product works great on both the computer and the TV!! Each slideshow comes out exactly how I designed it in PixPlay - transitions, music synchronization, everything exactly. I didn't even have to use a DVD-R disc - I used regular CD-R disc.

This will get us by until the new version of PixPlay is released which will be good to have everything we need in one program.
