I use Photoshop Elements to create my slideshow (digital stills and video segments). Then I create a wmv file of the slideshow and import it into Premier Elements for further editing. I then made a DVD of the project and when I played the DVD, the images were very blurred and unacceptable. I used all of the correct settings and used all the space on the disk to ensure maximum quality. The show is 35 minutes in length. What could have happened?

Thanks.

Is there any chance, when you were in Photoshop Elements at the Output to wmv stage, that you did not set the DVD NTSC (or DVD Pal) profile before pressing the button for Output to wmv?

I forgot to ask,

did you render in Edit before going to the DVD module for the burning process?
and
what did the DVD preview look like before you hit the Burn DVD button?

That is it for now.

For some reason Premier Elements had to shut down, and my project was not saved properly, nor was the copy of the project (automatic). I re-did the whole thing and got clarity. Thanks for the suggestions!
