Thanks a lot. My problem is with my older friends who have no computer
and want to see the photos on their TV sets via their DVD player.

Then I don't understand the extra monitor thingy at all!

I tried something new today. I burned the photos to a DVD+R as a DVD,
and the results are weird. Under "scenes" playback, I got an
out-of-control slide show that did not respond to stop, next, etc, but
just kept on going. Under "play", each photo started as a close-up, and
then zoomed out to the full photo frame; all automatically and with no
control possible from me.

Frankly, I am ready to quit. It is just not worth the effort.

May I suggest a Dropbox account? Just send them a link to a root folder
and they can navigate from there. A free one should go a long way. I've
tinyurled such a link:

Just tell your friends to click the box away...

Some of his friends do not own/use computers, so DB is not a solution.
A cross platform, system blind DVD photo disc is the only workable
option for the bulk of his recipients. He just has to find a way to
burn those photo discs without built in problems.
