How to create a DVD of pictures on a PC to play on a SONY DVD Recorder?

Sanspareil (Harmless) posted this on Tuesday, 5th February 2008, 12:33

I would like to download the pictures that I have stored on my PC and play them like a slideshow on my SONY GX300 DVD recorder.

Does anyone know if this is possible and, if so, do you need special software etc.?

At the moment, the SONY machine refuses to recognise disks recorded on the PC.

Also, should I be using DVD disks or CDs because the PC seems happier writing pictures to CDs but the SONY machine won`t read them either?

If you have succeeeded in doing this I would be very grateful for any advice or help that you may be able to give.

Are you "finalising" the discs? Some free standing DVD/CD players don`t like open discs.

try a free piece of software called irfanview (google it) which can write pics to a cd or dvd to play automatically as a slideshow
