Looking for good easy-to-use slideshow software (for DVD's), I downloaded the 15-day trial version of ProShow Gold. This evening, I made my first DVD. Although the software was very easy to use, I find that the slideshow audio cuts in and out when playing the DVD on my progressive-scan DVD player. However, when playing it on either the PC that created the DVD or on my cheapo DVD player in the bedroom, it runs just fine. Can anyone help me out with what might be causing this? Is there some kind of option that I need to select? Can anyone point me to another newsgroup or web forum that might address this? Thanks! >> Stay informed about: ProShow Gold Problem

Cutting out like that likely has little to do with ProShow, and more to do with your burner or burner/computer set-up. Are you using DVD-R? You should. +R will work on some, but I've found that -R is more compatible . You might also want to try having ProShow create an .iso file (DVD image file) and then use your burner's software to burn the disk. To do this...you select disk image instead of the DVD drive from within ProShow. There are a number of DVD players on the market that simply do not handle home-burned DVDs reliably...but again...I've found (after burning literally THOUSANDS of DVDs for wide distribution using ProShow Gold and ProShow Producer) that it's usually a burner quality issue. Last suggestion would be to limit the burning speed to 2x or 4x. This will usually give you a higher quality burn. I've seen DVD disks where you can literally SEE the lightness of the "burn" in portions of the disk, which indicates a burner problem as well. -Mark² PS. -Nothing beats a Plextor DVD burner for these kinds of jobs... Specifically, the Plextor PX-760A or newer. Nothing compares, save for perhaps the higher-end Pioneer drives. Sony, Memorex and others simply don't compare. -- Images (Plus Snaps & Grabs) by Mark² at: www.pbase.com/markuson >> Stay informed about: ProShow Gold Problem
