| 220627 | 2004-03-06 21:46:00 | I just experimented burning a DVD of our digital photos so our grandchild can watch herself on TV in those tense moments in a two year old's life... I used DVD+R, and all the photos were jpegs. The DVD player connected to the TV said it could not read the disk. I have a dual format DVD burner so I could try DVD-R, but I wondered if the problem is with the file format rather than the disk. Has anyone had any success doing this? Thank you for any contributions to a grandad's peaceful life... |

| 220629 | 2004-03-07 01:20:00 | Thanks Chill - that is very encouraging. I read somewhere that DVD+R was supposed to be compatible with most DVD players, but I can't remember where I saw that now. I'll try the other format and see what happens. Thanks. John |
