To try out making slide shows for free, try Microsoft's Photo Story 3,
download from their web site.
You first create an intermediate file, then convert it to .wmv movie file.
Then use DVD software to copy it to a DVD, either -R or +R.
I have not tried this yet on a DVD player for TV.
To make changes, you must revise the intermediat (project) file and then
re-render the .wmv file, so RWs really do not make much sense.
Also, Adobe Photoshop Elements 4 and 5 also make slide shows. They call
their intermediat file a creation. Both Elements and Photo Story 3 have the
Pan and Zoom capability as well as being able to add music and narration.
Also text.
Pro Show Gold is a very good program just for creating slide shows and they
have recently released a new version. It has more features than the above
software.
