Watching jpegs burned to DVD on DVD player
Hi,
I am running Windows Vista on my PC and burned a DVD of jpegs using the burn icon in Windows Explorer. I intended these images to be watched via a DVD player on TV, but they cannot be viewed. Is there a way to do it with what I already have? Thanks, Scott |

Thanks, Scott You say you burned them to a CD as if it was a DVD. This could be a problem. A CD and a DVD have two different formats and your crossing the line may just confuse any player. But if you just saved the jpegs to the CD as individual files it may be possible to view these on a DVD player. Many players do have the ability to view jpegs burned to a CD. If on the other hand you are trying to view a "slideshow" that was created with some slideshow software and it assumes you are buring it to a DVD, and you didn't, the format mismatch has probably made a mess of it. So if you burned the individual image files to a CD and your DVD player does not recognize them, you may want to look into getting a new DVD player. Be sure to search the box for a symbol that shows it is compatable with jpeg (and normally mp3 and other formats). Good luck. Randy ========== Randy Berbaum Champaign, IL |

No, I don't know how to do that on Windows just now. It's easy on a Mac, though. -- Ray Fischer |

A Sonic plug-in to write in pure DVD format is $19.95 http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/u...y/default.mspx |

I think Windows Movie Maker does that. Here's an article about using it to present still photos..... http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/u...ecember02.mspx Cheers, David |

You mus have a rubbish DVD player, have you bothered to read the instruction manual? I simply copy the Jpegs onto a disk, and shove the disk into the drawer, after a few seconds the player shows them all in thumnail form, then as a slide show. It's your DVD player thats the problem.

DVD-R, +R, +RW, etc. Not all standalone DVD players handle all formats, especially older ones. Did you burn it as a simple collection of jpegs (a DVD data disk)? In that case far fewer DVD players can handle those- it needs to be a very recent one. |
