I would like to copy several pictures to DVD so they will play on my DVD Player but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to do this. I see were you can do this with VCD but not a DVD? When I make the VCD it does not play on player? Any help would be greatly appreicated. Thank-you!

I've made several DVDs that play on my TV/DVD player. I used Nero's software to burn the DVDs. I'm not sure, but, I don't think you can do it with PSE.

Check the specs on your DVD player - there are quite a number out there that won't play VCD and the quality is not very good anyway. If you just want to view the pics on a DVD player see it will play jpegs - I have several that will and the quality is quite good (and you can burn a DVD full of jpegs from Elements).

Like Russ says though you can't render a DVD video from Elements, you need to create a wmv video and then render and burn to DVD in some other program (I use Sonic which came with my DVD burner but there are many other options).

also check the specs on your DVD player to see if it is compatible with DVD+R and/or DVD-R discs.

If not, try a different player - the smaller portable ones are usually the most forgiving, depending on how old your set-top unit is.
