Problem with Burning Photo CD
Hi all, This is probably OT but I am pulling what is left of my hair out and running out of blank disks. The task seems quite simple: Photos of an event are to be burnt to CDs and distributed to those involved. The only complication is I wanted to include a silde show with music and Ken Burns effect which I set up in iPhoto and exported to the Desktop. From there, the xxx.mov slide show runs as expected. Then I fired up Toast and, using the Data Mode, burned it together with a folder containing the pictures to a CD. But the slide show won't run from the disk!!! It starts up ok but then quickly mixes the pictures and the sound stutters or it just quits. Other attemps haven't solved the problem. I would be very grateful if someone could tell me how to do this correctly. Thanks in advane.

Gary G'day Gary I THINK you need to burn under the Video menu, as a DVD-Video, but with CD selected at the bottom. Also, tick Auto play on insert.

Re: Problem with Burning Photo CD
I do these sorts of slideshows in iDVD, where they're easy. Another good program for slideshows is Photo to Movie, http:// tinyurl.com/84yde. I think it costs $50 now, double its original cost, but you can do better pan/zooms (Ken Burns stuff) than even Final Cut Pro can do; in fact I do all my pan/zooms in Photo to Movie and then export them into Final Cut. For shows done entirely with Photo to Movie, you can add music, titles, and all sorts of things. Take a look at their sample slideshows here: http://tinyurl.com/ yfej3j4.
