How to make slide show on DVD?

I can not tell about the "best", but from the few I have try, I prefer the
Nero Vision Express 3 (part of Nero 6.x burnin software). It is simple.

Hello,

You can try Slide Show Pilot:
http://colorpilot.com/slideshow.html
The program allows you to create the slide Show and then to play it on
a home DVD player.

I have just started using ProShow Gold 2.5 from www.Photodex.com and
find it a lot of fun to play with. Incorporates a range of "Ken Burns"
effects (i.e. panning, rotating and zooming to still images) and can
include video clips (have not tried that). Has an adjustable time-line
(for images and audiot) and some 90 transitions. a bit price at USD$
69.95.

1. The Video CD has worst quality. Super Video CD is the same quality as
DVD, but:
2. SVCD is not compatible with all old DVD players. DVD disks plays
everyware
3. The DVDs costs me about 0,20 euro and CDs costs about 0,25 euro

I was looking for software to do this as well. After trying many
pieces of software, I have found SSMM 3.7 to be very good - Slide Show
Movie Maker. It is free, although donations are appreciated. There
can be very sophisticated effects and it is just a well thought out
software.

However, for better ease of use, I have just purchased Magix Photostory
2005. It is really fantastic. Photos, transitions, titles, music can
all be done easily. I found it far easier to use, for such purposes,
than big ticket items like video editing software -- I have downloaded
the Adobe Premiere Elements software, but found it rather complicated
for simple slide shows.

Really, Magix Photostory 2005 rocks. I strongly recommend it. They
have e-version available for download, including pre-licensing trial
download. I found it on a retail shop for less than the e-download
price, and so purchased the retail boxed version. I'm off to work on
it right now.

That is more likely due to characteristics of your DVD player.
They work fine on mine.
