I am having a lot of problems with PSE4 but first let me ask about the most important one at the moment.
I have spent hours and hours on a slide show that was easy and intuitive enough for a beginner like me so I was very happy with it until I went to burn my creation. On my desktop computer I have a DVD-rom (not burner) and a cdrw. After I finished and saved my slide show I right click on it and choose "Burn a Video CD"
I choose NTSC, drive speed "Auto" and then "OK". It asks me to insert a blank CD-r which I do and then it starts writing the files. A window says "writing WMV files" It does not give me any other choice. I know that format can play on a computer but is that the correct format for home DVD players? In any event, the writing process continues and when it’s done the cdrw drawer opens. I close the drawer to start what I believe is the autoplay disc and nothing happens. So I open MY Computer and right click on the drive and click Auto Play. Again, nothing happens. I view what is on the disc in windows explorer and there are 6 folders with the following names:
CDI, MPEGAV, SEGMENT, EXT, OPENDVD and VCD.
That is all! I have burned 6 coaster now!!!
What I have tried:
Downloaded latest firmware for the CDRW
burned a VCD in an older version of Roxio Easy Creator. worked fine Downloaded a trial version of ProShow Gold and burned a VCD from that. worked fine.
So the only thing I can conclude is that it’s the software that is bad or I’m doing the above process wrong.
Any advice? I’m am getting ready to tear my hair out!
I have windows xp pro, 120 HD with 80 gigs free, 2.53 GHz and 1 gig ram. I have no other programs running.
Please help. I would really like to keep this program and not have to invest in ProShow Gold at yet another cost even though it did do the job! dot
