Hi,

I often find the need to send photos by discs,and have noted a problem.
I use Picasa as my photo software. When I burn photos to DVD-R or CD-R,
they play back nicely on my PCs. However, when I try to view them on my
TV set via an outboard DVD player, I get the message that the
correctly-named photo group is there, but they do not appear. Instead,
I get an on-screen notice that no file is found.

How can I burn edited photos from my hard drive to a CD-R or DVD-R,
which will be viewable on a DVD player to a TV set?

Thanks in advance.

What software and what disc data format are you using to burn these
CD-R and/or DVD-R photo albums?

I have found that the most versatile software for this sort of job is
Roxio Toast, which is, Mac only. Toast will give you the option to burn
a cross platform "Photo Disc" with full resolution images and
automatically generated slideshows. I am sure the has to be something
similar for Windows.

Thank you Duck. I have been juryrigging this procedure for years and
now you've given me a reason to finally buy Roxio Toast!!
