I am trying to accomplish something that seems like it should be simple but I am not having any success. I am trying to take several (I have over 500) JPG images and create some sort of Video CD with them so I can view them in my home DVD player. Here's the hardware I have:

JVC XV-SA70BK DVD Player -- for TV SPECS (http://www.findadvdplayer.com/details.cfm?model=jvcxvsa70bk)
Plextor 40/12/40A CDRW -- for PC

I know that I will probably have to convert the JPG files to MPEG format for it to work on the DVD player. I have already read information regarding the DVD player and it should support this. It does support Video CD's. As for software, I am using Roxio Easy CD Creator 5.1 Platinum. It has several additional programs including VideoImpressions and Photo Relay. Each appear to help this cause but again, even after I converted a few images to MPEG and burned them to a CD-R, it doesn't do anything in the DVD player. I have even tried the VideoImpressions program which allows you to create VCD's. Yet, it still didn't work. :mad:

Has anyone tried or mastered this? The images are mostly of my daughter and I thought it would be a great idea to have a slideshow that I can play on my TV since my wife dispises the computer...:rolleyes:

I'm willing to purchase additional software to do this as long as I know that it is possible.

Thank you for any assistance that is provided.

Well, I may have found the right program for the job. I found this program using Google and it worked on a small MPEG file I created using a few JPG images. One test isn't enough yet so I will see what I can do with several hundred JPG images or as much as I can fit onto a CD.

If anyone still has suggestions on programs you may have used, I welcome them with open arms. :)
