  • Burning an iPhoto slideshow onto a DVD

    How can I burn an iPhoto slideshow onto a DVD?  I have created a slideshow with music but cannot determine how to burn it to a DVD.  I've tried to use iDVD but cannot figure it out.  I need very basic instructions, please.
    Thank you!

    Depends on information you do not supply - but burn a slide show to DVD export it to the desktop as a QuickTime movie and the using the finder burn it to dial - it can be played on any device that can play QuickTime
    To play on a DVD player it must be authored which requires iDVD or other authoring software like Toast - neither involves iPhoto - there is a iDVD forum and Toast has a support forum

  • How do i burn an iPhoto slideshow onto a DVD?

    how do I burn an iphoto slideshow onto a DVD? and a blueraycompatable DVD?

    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
    As for Bluray you'll need an app (and a burner) that can create that format.

  • Burning an iphoto slideshow to a DVD question???

    I have created a 30 minute slideshow in iphoto with Ken Burns (550 pics), transitions, and music. What is the best way to burn this to a DVD? I like creating it in iphoto because it places random KB effects on each photo. Will it stay intact if I just share it to iDVD or is their a better method? Also, when I try to adjust the length of time a particular slide displays I am not able to change the number of seconds (the up/down arrow is not visible). Thanks for any suggestions.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Share -> Send to iDVD
    Some folks find that their timings can go off a little. If so, then you can
    a: Make the slideshow in iDVD, but you won't have the Ken Burns Effec
    b: Make the slideshow in an app that has much more control such as iMovie or PhotoToMovie

    I'm having the same problem. I got my photos on i web and I can see the slide show on the computer but I can't burn it to a DVD. Did you ever figure out how?

  • PLEASE HELP! When I try try burning my iPhoto slideshow to a DVD, it stops within the last few minutes and says it can't.

    It just stops last minute.

    You could try a different brand of DVD. You could post in the iPhoto forum where those experts are.

    I've been using "Burn" for years and it has been the only DVD burning software I have ever used for the mac. I have never needed to look at other apps. Unless you want something that has more bells and whistles such as Roxio's "Toast" : http://www.roxio.com/enu/products/toast/pro/overview.html
    There are thousands of quality free apps out there for the mac that are not part of the App Store. All you have to do is read reviews online, do a little search, the Apple forums are full of recommendations from experienced users that have been here for years...

  • Burn a iPhoto slideshow to dvd

    I can't figure out how to burn an iPhoto slideshow to a dvd.  I created the slideshow and clicked on "export", the popup shows the different sizes, and a checked box that says "automatically to iTunes". From iTunes, I'm told to right click to burn the dvd.  But I'm not seeing any options to burn cd

    Export the slideshow from iPhoto, that makes a movie of it.

  • Burning an album slideshow to DVD??

    My wife ordered a photo book in Iphoto last night and in that photo book, there is a slideshow button. She can't burn this new slideshow to a DVD. Is this possible?

    Select the slideshow and go Share -> Send to iDVD. Only iDVD can make a DVD to play in your home DVD player.

  • DVD with powerpoint slideshow/movie

    I'm trying to make a DVD for someone for their birthday, i've already added a movie from my iPhotos, but am trying to additionally add a powerpoint slideshow to the DVD. I saved the powerpoint as a "movie" as recommended when I looked in iDVD help. However, when I try moving the file into the page i want, a tab keeps popping up saying that the file is unsupported, and is an unknown format. It is saved under Movies, and I have no idea what the problem is.
    My second problem was that when I was making the movie in powerpoint, I timed the slides to be shown for certain amount of time. I wanted to add a single song, instead of a soundtrack to the slideshow that would loop as it plays. However, powerpoint will not let me do that either. All of my songs come up grey. I'm not sure if its because they are in mp4 format, but if thats the case, I don't understand why it is not compatible for an Apple-tailored program.
    Can anyone help me please?? I need to finish this before friday, and would appreciate ANY help, i am clueless!!!
    thank you!!

    What I would do is export each powerpoint slide as a still image (640x480 TIFF). Bring the images into iMovie to create a slideshow and add the audio there.
    You could also use the images to create a slideshow with music in iDVD.

  • How to Export an Aperture Slideshow to a DVD?

    I am using Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and Aperture 3.2.2 on an iMac.
    I have followed the procedure set out in the Manual by selecting "Export" and choosing "Export for HD1080p" and then burning the exported slideshow to a DVD-R but neither my DVD player nor Apple's DVD Player software recognise the resultiing disk.  I can successfully create a slideshow in iDVD and burn it to a DVD which will play on both platforms but I understand that iDVD is being or has been discontinued so that option will soon be unavailable.
    What am I doing wrong?  Help!

    Thanks again, leonie.  I will certainly continue to use iDVD as long as I can.  But the people at the Apple Store warn me that future upgrades to the operating syatem may not support iDVD.  I guess I'li cross that bridge when I come to it.
    Have a great day,
    Robin.

  • How to burn a powerpoint 2013 presentation to a DVD R and or USB flash drive.

    My Powerpoint 2013 slideshow includes photo's, clip art with transitions and animations and embedded music.   I want to
    burn this presentation to either  a DVD disk or a USB flash drive and send it to a friend.   My friend has a windows 7 desktop
    computer and a DVD player attached to a TV.   Ideally I want to know how to burn the presentation to a DVD so that the presentation can be played back on the TV using the DVD player.    I do not want to lose any of the transitions
    or animations when I burn the presentation to a DVD.          I know most TV's have a USB connection but have no idea how this works if the
    presentation is copied to a USB flash drive.   What are my best options to keep the integrity of the presentation intact, and how do I go about doing this?   I need detailed instructions please.   Thanks in advance
    for your assistance.
     

    Hi,
    The factor of keeping the integrity of presentation when you burn this presentation to either a DVD disk or a USB flash drive depends on performance of DVD disk and USB flash drive.
    There are two ways to put PowerPoint presentation on a DVD convert PPT to video.
    1. Convert PPT Files To DVD is to use a screen capture software.
    2. Convert and Burn PowerPoint Presentation onto DVD would be to use a professional PowerPoint to DVD converter software.
    For more detail information:
    http://worldclassmedia.com/how-to-convert-powerpoint-files-to-dvd-put-a-powerpoint-presentation-on-tv/
    If your TV doesn’t have built-in processors or Windows installed, it can’t run PowerPoint presentations in their native environment from a USB connectors. If so, you should convert it to video format first.

  • Hi... I am looking for an inexpensive app for my macbook pro that I can put pictures and videos together into a slideshow with captions and music WITHOUT a watermark and that also will burn the slideshow to a DVD in its own app. Help?

    The issue with the A1400 is that like most economy compact cameras, they will not have very fast focus times in indoor lighting situations. Many people have gone to entry level DSLR's (Canon T3i) or micro 4/3 cameras. They are fairly expensive, but a late model refurbished T3i can sometimes be found with a kit lens for about $300.00. With Auto and scene modes, as well as full manual modes, these are very versatile cameras that focus very quickly, even in lower lighting situations. Canon is not really into the micro 4/3 cameras, instead they are focusing on the new G7x and G1x cameras, which are way out of your price range. The A720 is still available used at some places such as KEH camera, but you'll need to check often as their stock changes constantly. Obviously the DSLR's don't use AA batteries, but the T3i is good for about 600 photos (or more) per charge.
    My refurbished DSLR was practically brand new condition when I got it. I could not find any sign of wear at all, so I feel they are a real bargain. These are rugged cameras that are made to last. The A1400 is a $99.00 camera, so it's not intended for heavy usage, plus the image quality of a DSLR (even entry level) is far better than the A1400. That would be my recommendation.

  • Burning several "slideshows / Movies" to DVD

    I would like to know if it is possable to burn several short "slideshows / movies" to a single DVD and if you can, how to do it.

    Yes, the only consideration would be the total Duration of the SlideShows.
    Now, much of the workflow will depend on how the SlideShows have been produced. If you have have several SlideShow Projects already, go to each one, and Export/Share to DV-AVI files w/ 48KHz 16-bit PCM/WAV Audio. Then, start a new DV Project, Import those DV-AVI files into it, and author with Menus, etc., and Burn to Disc.
    If one has yet to start, then the SlideShows can be assembled onto one Timeline, and one would just author that to DVD.
    When working with still images, I would strongly suggest Scaling the images in PS/PSE, before Importing into PrE. This ARTICLE will give you tips. Also, if the SlideShows were created in PSE, then one can Export to Premiere Elements, and if more editing is necessary, they can Break Apart the PSE SlideShow.
    Where are you in the process, as that might direct you in one way, or another?
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • How do you burn an iPhoto slideshow onto dvd?

    I am trying to burn an iPhoto slideshow onto DVD - any tips? Thanks!

    If you want to create a video DVD that will play on a set top DVD player to your TV read the following:
    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.
    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.
    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 retailer 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.
