I put together a slide show with pictures and audio, burned it on a DVD but
when I try to play on DVD it gives an error message and says MP3-JPEG and
then does a count down. I am trying to get this done by xmas and can't figure
it out HELP ANYONE!!!! Does the HIGHMAT Technology have anything to do with
this? If so is there any way to get around it?

========================================

First...your project must be saved in a movie
format....wmv or .avi. (I'll post instructions at
the end of this message)

Next you need DVD Authoring software that
is compatible with the .wmv or .avi formats.
Two possibles are NeroVision 5 (included in
Nero 8 Ultra Edition) and WinDVD 8 Platinum.

More info at the following links:

To save as an .avi movie file...
(and several other options)
Type...Ctrl+P to open the Save Movie Wizard /
Choose...My Computer /
Next /
Enter a Name and a Save Location /
Next /
Show More Choices /
Other Settings /
Open the drop window and choose...DV-AVI /
Next /
Wait while the movie is saved /
Finish...

To save as a .wmv movie file...
Type...Ctrl+P to open the Save Movie Wizard /
Choose...My Computer /
Next /
Enter a Name and a Save Location /
Next /
Tick...'Best Quality For My Computer'
Next/
Wait while the movie is saved /
Finish...

Also, you may find it useful to use

Thanks for the speedy reply, from looking at some of the past posts about
this problem I think I read something about JPEG files being a problem? will
the dvd authoring software take care of that? And also the audio, is there
something I need to do with that because I pulled it from my media center.

==================================

The question still remains...do you have
a playable, completed .wmv or .avi movie file?

As far as source file formats are concerned...
