I have been reading the posts as to how I can burn a DVD of my slide show
that I created in Windows Movie Maker using Nero 7 Ultra Edition. I haven't
been successful. I followed the directions in movie maker in saving my slide
show and saved it to my computer in the DV-AVI (NTSC) format. I tried to
follow the instructions that I read on the posts and actually burned a DVD,
but it will not play in my DVD player or my Computer. I can tell there is
data on the DVD. I guess I need step by step instructions. I would
appreciate any help I can get. Thanks so much!--

====================================
Forget about Nero unless you have the
full retail version that includes NeroVision.

The following free program works for me...
scroll down for instructions:

DVD Flick
http://www.dvdflick.net/

Be sure to read the Guide:
http://www.dvdflick.net/guide.php

If you have problems downloading DVD Flick...
try the following direct link:

http://tinyurl.com/bvtfza
or...
http://voxel.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/dvdflick/dvdflick_setup_1.3.0.6.exe

Save the file to a folder on your hard drive and
install from there.

Burn Any PC Video Format into DVD

To create a basic Video DVD that should play in a free
standing DVD player...try the following...

Good luck.

First...read the DVD Flick Guide to familiarize yourself
with the program.

Open DVD Flick and insert a blank DVD in your burner.

If your computer's Autoplay window opens....just close it.

Click the Project Settings button and go to...Video /
Target format...residents of USA...choose...NTSC /
Accept.

Left click the Add title button and browse to your
Movie Clips and select the ones you want on the DVD.

You can arrange them by selecting one and then use
the Move Up and Move Down buttons.

Left click the Create DVD button / OK / Yes / Yes.

Wait while the DVD is created.

When the text "Finished Successfully" appears you
may close DVD Flick. Now you can eject your DVD
and play it in your DVD player.

At some point you may wish to purchase more
advanced software like Nero, Roxio, Ulead, etc...but
at least this is a start.

Thanks for the information. I do have the full Nero software and it includes
Nero Vision. I guess I just can't figure out exactly how to go about using
it. Would it be better to just download DVD Flick? Thanks --

NeroVision should work for you...

Maybe the following 7 page tutorial will help:

If you continue to have issues...
give DVD Flick a try.

Good Luck.
