did you use the tdk disks?
ken
Yes -one of the discs that didnt work before.
So now the questions is why do the images appear to be lower quality. Definitely not as sharp as on monitor and I think not a ssharp as when I used the DVD creator on the file menu?
-
Tried creating an .avi file and it worked. I was able to burn a disc from that file using SonicDVD program. It wrote over one of the old attempts with no problem.

Terry,
Appears to be the whole batch of the TDK DVD discs you have are all bad in some fashion. Try other brands if need be.
Yes they are already in the trash.

DOES THE EXE PLAY OK- on the computer?
ken
Yes fine. I think it must be the DVDs.
-
will it play in a stand alone dvd player /tv setup
ken
Okay tries it on a standalone DVD and tv. Ran fine right up to the point that is stopped on computers. Player stopped and message poped up "disc is dirty". I've been told there is no way to clean so I will burn a new one and hope.

I've now run into another problem. With all the help here I have successfully burned a DVD using the burn DVD command. The problem is that it freezes while running. I have tried it on 4 computers and wioth 3 or 4 differant presentation programs. Always the same result it freezes on the same image and neither the program nor the computer will run. I need to push the start button and hold to clear everything.
Is it as simple as the image is corrupted or some other issue? The presentation is about 276 images at 1.2GB and it freezes on image 87.
Thanks again for all help on this forum.

Thx Nobeef-
Turns out it was much simpler. The brand spanking new out of the wrapper DVD was defective. I tried another and it worked fine. Thanks for the tip for testing shows. I will try it since it seems it will save time and effort.

Slowly getting the hang of the program and now at the all important last step of burning a DVD.
The project is large-250 JPEG images@1.23GB.
I go file-burndvd-new screen opens- click on project and then add-next-tried at both 1.4 and 4.7-start......then the problem occurs
Most times I get a box "disc is not inserted" sometimes it starts and then I get message. The disc is in the correct drive and I have put it in both before and after starting program with same results. The disc is a new TDK dvd+rw 1-4x.
Any help appreciate especially since I have a presentation next week. I hate the thought of bringing my desktop and running it from the preview tab.

Peter- thanks I tries that early and got nothing but now I see it. Don't know what I did differently but who cares if it works.
Len- I had done this already and unless I missed something the answer to my questions want there.

Okay I admit I am a computer dummy but some things should be so easy even the likes of me should figure it out.
So 2 questions:
1-I am trying to add text to a slide. I click on objects and animations>Atab>type in my text and move it to area I want but then cant create the slide with the text in my show. What do I have to do to have the text show up on the slide in the show I am creating?
2- Can I only burn a DVD or will program burn a CD?
tia for any help

Thanks Ken. You and others here are a great help.
I probably should have been clearer in last post. I was viewing the DVD on differant computers with the same or better resolution. in one case. then the one where I created the project. The original JPEGs,actually JPEG fron RAW,seem better then the images on the DVD.
