Burning a DVD slide show on Premiere Elements 8.0

I am trying to burn a slide show on Premiere Elements 8, but when I try to save the slide show before burning my computer crashes.  I've got Windows 7.  My understanding is that Premiere Elements 7 and Photoshop Elements 7 do not work with Windows 7. I had both of those programs, and got Premiere and Elements 8 to remedy the problem to no avail.  My computer still won't save the slide show.  Any hints?  Thanks.

As per my understanding, you created a slideshow in PSE organizer and now want to burn into DVD using Output dialog which launches PRE...
Which application crashes and at which step??
Through PSE you can output the video into PDF or Video...

  • Newbe requests help with audio for slide-show on Premiere Elements 4.

    I recently wrote you regarding a problem I was having with a slide show I was making on Premiere Elements 4 importing photo clips and music from PhotoShop Elements 9.  Thank you for your help.
    This very large slide show, some 200 clips that I have not resized is completed.  I am now having many problems with the music audio I am adding to various sequences of the slide show.  Specifically:the audio will not stay fixed on the places where I put it and end it.  Working on the Timeline Usually the length of the audio is shorter than the ending of the photo clips where it must go.  I click on the audio and stretch it and end it at the place I designate.  However, the other end has moved also so now I am left with a gap where there is no audio at the beginning of the segment.  Now in addition, the "Delete and Close Gap" does not work most of the time causing me to manually move the photo tiles which sometimes move when this happens.  I have to move each one or two individually to the left to close the gap and many times this causes loss of one or two photo tiles or they are out of order or have increase in number (of the one I am moving).
    The program has also shut down for the past 10 days causing me to lose a good deal of work and sometimes photo clips and sometimes I get many duplicates of the photo clips.  All I do is edit mostly the same two segments doing this over and over because I can't proceed to importing any more music because I can't get the first segments correct.  I have chatted with you people, Sony techs, Microsoft Techs and Canon Techs.  The Sony techs suggested the program was at fault and I used the original installation disk and repaired the program.  It has still shut down on me but not as much.
    I got error messages on the photo-cap instructions page you suggessted otherwise I would show pictures of the above problems.
    I tried to copy and/or cut and paste from the Timeline thinking I would start a new slide show in PhotoShop Elements 9 using the same photos in reverse.  The program would not let me copy or paste.  There is great difficulty in highlighting the photo tiles in Timeline because I have to shift click on each individual tile and there are too many tiles and it would take too long to get a whole segment copied.  Maybe you know another way to do this?
    I am at a stand-still now and I am quite despondent because I have been working on this slide-show for 3 months and it was a surprise for my daughter's 25th anniversary that was last Tuesday.
    I do hope you have some good suggestions that will lelt me complete this Project and get it on a disk.  I am not that technical so please be specific.
    Thanks in advance.

    Here's the basic advice I'd give, based on my experience. Much depends, though, on your goals and the specifics of your computer system:
    1) Resize all of your photos to no larger than 1000x750 pixels in size. This is VITAL if you want the program to maintain stability as you work. Also render often (by pressing the Enter key). When the render, the red lines above the clips on your timeline will turn green and the program will run much more efficiently.
    2) Work on your large slideshow project in shorter segments. You've got over 15 minutes worth of slides. Try working on this slideshow in 5 minute segments, output each segment and then combined the finished videos.
    3) Use only WAV audio as your music and audio for your slideshow.
    4) When you add video, audio or stills to a parallel track on your timeline, hold down the Ctrl key to override the ripple function and your current clips will remain in place.
    5) Maintain your computer by using a tool like the excellent, free, one-click Advanced System Care available at http://www.iobit.com/advancedsystemcareper.html
    As for Delete and Close Gap, how it performs depends on whether you've selected Clear or Delete, whether you've pressed the Backspace key or the Delete key and if there is video or audio on a parallel track. (This is all covered in my books, by the way, if you're interested.)
    Without knowing the specifics of your project and your situation, it's hard to give out more specific information -- but this advice should get you a long way toward completing your project!

  • Problems w/ buring DVD of photo slide show & best Premiere Elements 8 upgrade recommendation please.

    I created a video slide show in Adobe Photoshop & Premiere elements 8, kept getting messages:  "disk space low, exceeded recommended #of slides and/or recommended 30 minute duration".  So what, I want a 90 minutes slide slow?(!)  It allowed me to complete, but disk burn would never finalize (after stopping at 78% 8 hours later).  How do I get this project file to burn in Nero or something similar and is there better software out there?  I have a ton of videos to create after this photo slide show & I certainly can't wait all night for a video to burn after it is created.
    PS:  I have had this problem w/ previous videos I created.  i.e. in the past, using same Premiere Elements version, I have combined multiple video clips into one DVD movie but it took all night to burn.  Any insight will be much appreciated.

    Welcome to the forum.
    I agree with John T., in that the pixel x pixel size of the Still Images would be the first thing that I would look into.
    Next, I interpret that error message to be related to the available HDD space. His links on furnishing more info will be important there. Pay special attention to furnishing the full specs. of your I/O sub-system, i.e. your HDD's, their size, speed, available defragmented free-space, controller type and how you have them allocated.
    A 90 min. DVD should NOT be over the avilable space on a DVD-5 disc.
    If you DO have adequate defragmented free-space on your HDD(s), you should be able to Burn to Folder, and then use Nero, Roxio or the great, free ImgBurn, to do the physical burn to DVD.
    However, if you have limited defragmented free-space, that will likely fail, as the working files required are very large.
    In very general terms, PrE needs between 40 - 60GB of defragmented free-space, just to run effectively and efficiently. When one does either a Burn to Folder, or Burn to Disc, that necessary space can go up.
    Also remember that as one approaches about 70% of HDD capacity, performance decreases. As one nears 100%, performance can slow to a crawl, and at 100% catastrophic failure of the HDD is a strong possibility. One should not exceed about 70%, and NEVER go to 100%.
    Good luck, and please let us know more, and especially about your I/O sub-system.

  • Encrypting slides on dvd slide show

    Hi - I'm making dvd slide shows of my photography and need to know how to make it so people can't pull the photos off the dvd.. also how to protect the dvd from being copies. Does anyone know how to do this?
    thanks

    spec,
    sorry in advance for the folllowing tech-bla-bla....
    ... I'm selling these to clients and can't really sell them marked up photos...
    ehm, you're posting in iDVD; iDVD is an encoding, authoring and burning app to create videoDVD, meaning: video, displaying on TV =>interlaced, 640x480, wacky NTSC (apologizes to US citizens...)…
    selling PHOTOS that way??
    a videoDVD from a photographer as "the map", a portfolio... sure! impressive music, sleezy transitions to some acid-jazz… all that understood & often seen... but SELLING in means of transport this way?
    no way.
    using tools as Toast allows to you create a video and a data partition on one single dvd-r; you could even "password protect" such a data section (not with Toast, other workflow...)...
    soooo.....
    stamp a FAT and glowing "this photo belongs to spectorphotography" ... ok, somethin' shorter... and forget the glow.... on every pic in SLIDESHOW; but, please, sell a HiRes version to your clients, ... besides: how shall they "grab" the pics from videoDVD? as screen-grabs??
    make watermarks
    create a data partition...
    sorry for ranting <breathless> ;-))))
    hopefully still helpful....?

    How do I move Elements 8 projects (slide shows) from a Windows XP computer to new Windows 7 computer that also has Elements 8 on it so that the slides shows will work (Elements 8 works well on the Windows 7 computer & I have done several new slide show projects on it)?    I tried backup & restore without success.  I have also found the .psess files and copied them to the catalog in the new computer but when the sides shows are opened none of the images or music is there.  Only the text that I entered shows.  I have even tried to replicate the file paths from the XP computer to the new computer to see if that will help.

    UPDATE:  By a stroke of luck I happened to find a catalog link (a PSE8D file) in the 'My Catalog' file where the imported data was stored.  When I clicked on it to investigate what is was 'magically' all of my transferred projects appeared in Organizer.  Upon further investigation I found that the projects transferred from my XP computer were stored in a hidden catalog that had to be accessed through the Custom Location option in Catalog Manager (accessed by clicking File then Catalog then Custom Location).  No Windows or Elements search revealed this fact.  I am appreciative that I just got lucky.  The Adode/Photoshop company was absolutely of no help.  If fact to me their structure is designed to avoid contact with their customers unless you're buying a new product.  Their products have many good features (even though user unfriendly) and it's a shame they don't value their customers more once the sale is completed. 
    Bottom line:  All of the projects (sideshows) have been recovered and work in my new Windows 7 computer.  I hope my experience helps others. 

  • How do you create a 800 x 200 pixell slide show with Photoshop Elements 8?

    I have a banner for a web page that measures 800 x 200 pixels. I would like to create a slide show in the whole volume but I have been unable to discover where to change the standard size of the slide show window to 800x200 in Elements 8. Can anyone help?
    Al

    Many thanks for your reply. I edited a series of photographs to 800x200 as
    you described and then attempted to create a slideshow in Slideshow editor.
    I get a good horizontal fit in the slide frame but there are black bars top
    and bottom since the frame is more than 200 pix high. My question really is
    how do I create a 800x200 slide frame that the edited photographs will fit.
    Subject: How do you create a 800 x 200 pixell slide
    show with Photoshop Elements 8?
    In the slideshow editor interface click once on your image in the main
    window - you will see a bounding box appear together with editing options.
    Click on the More Editing button and when your image opens in full edit
    select the crop tool.
    Set width to 800 px and height to 200 px and resolution to 72
    Drag out your crop rectangle and move your image to the position you want -
    this avoids image distortion but you will sacrifice parts of the original to
    create a banner.
    Press Ctrl=S to save and check version set to save an edit without affecting
    the original.
    Press Ctrl+W to close and your cropped image should automatically pop up in
    the slideshow editor.

  • Adding Music to slide show in Photoshop Elements 8

    I am trying to add music to a slide show in Photoshop Elements 8. When I go to add the music I get the following message:
    The selected file cannot be played because your system does not have the required compresser/decompresser (codec) installed.
    I've tried downloading a copy of things from the internet and either they were the wrong things or I didn't know how to use them, so I uninstalled them.
    Can someone point me in the right direction of what I need to download and what I do once I download the software?
    Thanks so much!

    I'm using MP3 and getting the same error.  Yes, the file does play in Windows Media player and in iTunes. The song I'm trying to use was purchased from Amazon.
    Any advice on how to add this would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

  • Sound cuts out on DVD slide shows with music

    I have tried 5 DVD slide show programs with the same result.  Hewlett Packard says my hardware is OK but I have a compatability problem.  My wife has the same compaint.  Can you help with my computer?

    Before doing anything with the computer in question, backup all the music files in question to either a flash drive or CD. Try  that music, etc on an independent computer, either friend's or at a library to see if the files are good and do not exhibit the problems that are being observed on the computer in question.  If they play OK elsewhere, then try the "Recovery Partition Manager" to return the computer to "like from the factory".  With all the software experimenting, it could be a problem between the different software installs. Once the computer is "like from the factory" again, then try to play the music that was backed up on the "factory fresh" installation without any other software installs.  Report back on how that goes.

  • Creating Slide Show problems in Elements 10

    I have Photoshop elements 10. I started to create a slide show: so selected the photos, then the show preferences from the dialogue box but when I clicked OK the Slide Show editor dialogue box did NOT appear and everything froze.  the only way out was to close the whole program. Please can you help?

    If you are running Windows system then this article will help you to get started:

  • How can I edit in Elements 10 or Premier Elements 10, slide shows created in Elements 8?

    How can I edit in Elements 10 or Premier Elements 10, slide shows created in Elements 8?
    Fortunen

    When you installed version 10 did you convert your previous catalog?
    If so, your projects should appear in the PSE10 Organizer. To search for them type PSESS into the search box.
    You should then be able to open the project by double clicking on  its thumbnail.
    Then choose Output >> Edit in Premier Elements

  • When I create a DVD slide show, the images on TV are 4:3 instead of 16:9. Fix? (Using version 11.)

    When I create a DVD slide show, the images on TV are 4:3 instead of 16:9. Fix? (Using version 11.)

    Hi Christina,
    I used it because other facets of my work in graphics require conversion, not just FCP, so I am used to popping it open quickly using it on the fly, in the field when shooting. I back up, then convert typically on my laptop while it sits on the seat of my pickup while I am photographing the next portion of the training. I do have the files backed up (in ordered structure as shot and preserved on the cards) both on my laptop, also mirrored in the RAID and once again on a second external firewire LaCie and make sure that every little file is in there as it should be. Thanks for the info. on that though, appreciate it. Will probably switch to using FCP to that level of Log and Capture in the future because it seems more basic. I am not sure using L&C would make any difference on the problem I seem to be having here. I will create a small sample file and give it a try for future reference. Again, thank you.
    Up until this week the  Quicktime conversions I have been creating and composing from have been compressed in H.264 (720 X 480 to fit our LMS stage), and have been working well without a hitch. And 8 of the 11 of these sequences are still exported to a true 16:9 without a hitch. They are sharp, bright and the color is great. The three orphans are also sharp with good color, however squished from side to side. It simply makes no sense that data that has been saved identically, edited identically and exported with identical settings would change in mid-stream like that.
    Thanks for taking the time to reply. I do appreciate that very much.
