    5 out of 5 stars great software for the money   July 16, 2007
    Kathy (Westminster, MD United States)

    I got a pretty good deal on this. Won't say how much or where since it wasn't through Amazon. I have been very pleased with it so far. I have put several home movies on DVD and also created a slideshow of photos from my digital camera. Everything I have made plays fine and looks very nice. One cool feature about the slideshow, it let me add background music (a song from one of my albums) and the software automatically set the speed of the slideshow so it was perfectly timed to the length of the song.

    The software wasn't too difficult to learn. It took a few hours to install the software and set everything up to make my first video. I'm not sure how long it took to encode and burn the DVD since I walked away and let it do its thing.

    I only have one complaint. When I capture a video from my camcorder, it gives me the option for automatic scene detection by date/time or by scene change. I can select the scenes I want to use and change the order they appear on the DVD. This part works fine. But when I go to burn the DVD, it puts the scenes back together again. If I want the video split into chapters so I can skip scenes using my DVD remote control, I have to manually split them myself, which is very time consuming and tedious.



    5 out of 5 stars When it works..it's great!   December 6, 2006

    One year ago I burned the coolest dvd for my grand daughter. She was so impressed that she requested one for her baby's 1st birthday. I spent 2 days getting the slideshow just right and it wouldn't burn to a dvd...wouldn't even give me the option! I called the company and they couldn't figure it out either. Now...in their defense, they told me to try something else (it didn't work) and to call back with the results and they would have me talk to the developers if necessary. THEY BENT OVER BACKWARDS TRYING TO GET THIS PROBLEM SOLVED. I gave up and didn't call back, but, I'm looking at their newest software and am considering it now. Don't pass up their software because of complaints about customer service. If you register, they will help. Actually, they have some of the best customer service I've experienced. Anybody try to call Microsoft lately??? When it worked, it worked great.


    5 out of 5 stars Perfect for Fast DVD SlideShows and Photo Albums   December 7, 2005

    I'm not sure why the people below below had all this trouble, but this worked perfectly for me. Within just a few minutes, I had a DVD slideshow set to my music, with the best PAN and ZOOM features in the industry (bringing my photos to life).

    spent hours putting together a slideshow and burning it to DVD...wouldn't play on any of our 4 different DVD players...[...]...don't bother with it!

    no real help file...I work with software and tried everything to get it to work...no luck...do NOT waste your money!



    1 out of 5 stars Horrible   November 12, 2005

    This software is the biggest rip off I think I've ever experienced. I was able to use this software to make ONE DVD slideshow of photos and then it quit working. I've tried to contact the company numerous ways (emails, phone calls, leaving messages) over the last 6 weeks and I have not received one response. I've tried reloading the software to my computer and that doesn't work.
    I've come to the conclusion that this is junk and the company knows it's junk and that's why no one bothers to get back to you when you have a problem. I had to buy another DVD slideshow software so I could finish my project in time for Thanksgiving. Save yourself the money and buy another brand.
