Is there an easy way to burn a disc of a slideshow in Iphoto?

Hello Kate & a warm welcome!
You can export it as a Movie, then burn that...

Burning a slideshow to disc and sound slider

I have made a slide show with narration and music. Using Photorshop 10 Organizer.
1. The sound slider has no effect. The music does not dip when there is narration on a slide. Can this be solved?
2. I cannot burn the slideshow. Trying in Photoshop (trying a CD as well as DVD) it will not burn. The CD seemed to burn, but there was nothing on the disc when it said it was completed. Trying on the DVD it put me into Premiere Elements 10. It showed the soundtrack but not the pictures. During the burn the disc came out before burning had finished. Another time it completed the burn but there was nothing on the disc. sometimes the unknown error 2131042560 was quoted.
Please can anyone help?

It sounds like you might be using Photoshop Elements, not Photoshop. Is this the case? If so, I can redirect your question to the appropriate forum.

When I try to burn my slideshow.mov to a dvd disc, it will burn but when i put it in the dvd player it says 'disc error'. I have burned it thru iDVD before but forgot how to do it and it won't do it now. The slide show is on my desktop

Rather than burn directly to disk follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

Ow do you burn a slideshow from i photo to a disc

How do you burn a slideshow from Iphoto to a disc.

Export the slideshow from iPhoto, that makes a movie of it.
Do you want to use this DVD in a domestic DVD player? If so, then the disk will have to be 'authored' to make it the correct form for that. If you have iDVD then that's the app you use. However, iDVD is no longer developed or distributed by Apple. You may be able to get it on an old iLIfe install disk.
Other options:
Burn: http://macupdate.com/app/mac/21992/burn
Toast: http://macupdate.com/app/mac/6351/toast-titanium
But there are lots of others too. Search on the App Store or MacUpdate

How can I burn a slideshow to a disc?

So I made a slideshow using keynote. I've tried numerous times to burn it to a disc by dragging the saved slideshow on my desktop to the disc and then burning it, which is what Finder Help says to do. However, the disc won't read in a Windows computer or a DVD player. The files are there, but they are in the wrong order, without music, and won't play like a slideshow should. Is it because the file type is unsupported? Or is it just that I'm burning it wrong? Whatever it is, can someone please help me? I'm so frustrated!!

Greetings and Welcome to the Forum:
Dragging the KN file to the desktop and "burning" it to a disc only copies the file, it does not make it playable on another computer (or DVD player) unless it is re-opened as a KN file.
To make it playable on another machine (especially a DVD player or non-Mac computer), you need to Export the KN file to another format: QuickTime, iMovie, etc. Be aware that there currently are issues with QuickTime 7.5 and Keynote that are a result of some poor software writing by the good folks at Apple. Keep watching this forum for further details and updates.
Good luck.

How can i burn a slideshow to a dvd disc and keep the same full screen hi-def quality to it? I exported it to idvd but much of the quality was lost.

Ask in the iDVD forum on what's the best way out of iPhoto and into iDVD. The resident expert there, Bengt Wärleby, can give you the best option.

Burning IMovie slideshow to a disc - still possible after recent update?

Greetings, I've used IMovie to put stil photos and some video into an IMovie slideshow. Previously, I'd used IDVD to burn the slideshow to a DVD, but since the recent update to Mavericks, IDVD is apparently no longer supported by Apple. Question: How does one now burn their IMovie slideshows to a DVD? Also, with friends in Australia and New Zealand (where PAL is the format) to whom I'd like to share the DVD, is PAL format possible? Thanks for any assistance! Phil

In iDVD 1-3, there was good quality up to 60 minutes, fair quality from 61 minutes to 90 minutes. Starting in iDVD 4, you could get movies up to 120 minutes, but the quality degrades with increased running time, starting at about 70 minutes. The quality at 120 mins is still better than the old version's 61-90 minute projects.
To get two movies on the same DVD, start by preparing the first movie the normal way. Then drag the second movie's small .mov file into the iDVD window. You will now get another button for the second movie. Be sure to select "Best Quality" in iDVD first.

I am trying to burn a slideshow onto a dvd that will play on a standard dvd player and tv, but everytime I copy it I cannot play the disc except on my Macbook

You can't just copy the slideshow to a DVD as, you've found out, that won't play on a TV. You need to use a program that will render it into DVD format, complete with the proper lead in and trailers. I use Toast to do that, however, there are other programs that can do that too.

Can someone please tell me a simple but effective method for burning a slideshow to DVD? Now that the connection between iPhoto and iDVD no longer exists, I can't figure out a way to get there with an acceptable quality result.

Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.

If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

She can easily make copies of the DVD using Finder:

Burned DVD slideshow transition

I made a slideshow project on iDVD, and burned it on a disc.
When I played it, I found one problem
During the transitions, where the pictures are sliding in and out...when the transition stops, the picture becomes slightly brighter, and when it moves again, the picture slightly dims and slides out...ie, its not a "smooth transition" or "smooth slideshow"
this "brightening" and "dimming" of the pictures during transitions doesnt happen when I directly play off of iDVD...only happened after I burned it on a DVD. I've tested this out on playing the DVD off a DVD player, and my Mac.
can anyone help me on this??
Thanks!

The transitions don't work well with menu DVD players; if you experiment you will find some are worse than others. The problem is, slides in an iDVD slideshow are considered to be chapters and many players pause on Chapter changes.
For best results, create your slideshows as movies in iPhoto or iMovie. I use Fotomagico and others like Photo to Movie; either of these commercial programs give you many great slideshow features.

HT1103 How can I burn a slideshow (with sound) to a DVD. I have an imac desktop.

Does anyone know how to burn a slideshow to a dvd disc. It has pictures, video and music. LLaBant

To create a video DVD disk that can be played in set top DVD players and shown on a TV set you need a DVD video authoring application, like iDVD. If you do not have iDVD on your Mac you'll have to purchse it by bying a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com.
Why iLife 09 and not 11:
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7.

1 - once you have iDVD installed export the slideshow out of iPhoto at Size = Medium or Large:
2 - 0pen iDVD, select your theme and drag the exported movie file into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones.

HT4718 After burning a slideshow from iPhoto export to a DVD, it will not play on my DVD player OS X 10.9.4

iMac 27' OS X 10.9.4 I burned a slideshow from iPhoto export to a DVD and now it will not play back on anything. The player said Unknown disc. What can i do?

I do find that using one of these programs will reduce the sharpness of the photos.
Granted, I've never used iPhoto - I use Photo to Movie for slideshows and various versions of iMovie for videos, but my pics are excellent quality and my videos are shot in 1080p (better camera) or 720p (small camera) and the results are superb on my TV using both iDVD and Toast. However, I do not encode in iDVD, I simply use it to add a theme and menus. The encoding is done by Photo to Movie, or iMovie 06 HD (the only version ever to process losslessly) and either/both are imported into iDVD as a complete .mov, or Toast.
Since using those methods, I've never had a problem with the sharpness or crispness of my footage. My eyes cannot discern a difference between my "production" and true HD (unless of course I shook the camera while shooting, LOL).

Can I burn a slideshow to play in a dvd player?

Yes. Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. For iPhoto 9.4.3 and earlier select Size = Medium or Large. For iPhoto 9.5 and later selct 480p.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.

I burned a slideshow with iDVD, professional quality selected, 16:9 aspect ratio selected. The quality of the finished product is much below that seen on my computer. I have watched slideshows made by other imac users which look great.

I have burned a slideshow from an iphoto album through iDVD, with "pro quality and 16:9 aspect ratio" selected on a double layer dvd. When viewed, the picture quality is much inferior to that of the photos on my computer. I have viewed slideshows made others with mac software and the pictures are much better. My tv is HD 1080 wide screen and disc player is new. What am I missing?

That's more an iDVD problem and you should ask your question there: iDVD.
The resident expert there, Bengt Wärleby, will be able to give you suggestions on how to proceed. He's very, very good.
