Hi there, I have been trying to burn a cd or dvd with all my photos on to play on my tv. each time it doesnt work, although I can see them on my computer. I have gone into a shop and put them on a cd and it has then played on my dvd player? how can I do the same myself?
I have window vista home premium and have used the microsoft programme to burn the cd/dvd and using discs maxell cd-r and tdk dvd-r
thanks so much!

I'm not really tech savvy, but I do know that there is a difference between how a computer and a DVD player decodes the media for playback. Someone with more tech experience would be better able to explain it or maybe give you some direction on what to do next. Sorry I couldn't help you more.

How are you burning them to the media as far as what are you burning them as?
Data
Video
Pictures

It will make a difference how you burn them


What format are the pictures in?

BMP
JPG
PNG
TIFF
GIF
ICO

This could also be a reason
