Slide show question

[Twonko]

I want to put a large number of jpegs on a dvd so that they can be played one by one on a TV with the filename showing preferably. I know I can just write them to dvd and play them on a regular dvd player but is there a bit of software I can use to make the presentation a bit better? Would prefer to manually click my way through rather than have them change automatically. Cheers

Id expect most of the current cd/dvd burning programs to have slideshows built in or at least offered as an addon package.

Nero do photoshow elite Trial here

or try

CD Slide Show Generator
With this PowerToy you can view images burned to a CD as a slide show. The Generator works downlevel on Windows 9x machines as well.

its free

Err, I think Twonk was after the ability to burn a slideshow to a DVD to view on a TV, not watch one from a DVD/CD on a PC.

SSMM can create AVI's from slideshows, along with transitional effects.
ImageToAVI does the same.

Both are only output tools though, you'd still need to author the final DVD using something like Nero VisionExpress.
