| 217302 | 2004-02-22 01:09:00 | Recently I got a cd burner using Nero 5.5 software and I'm having problems burning photos.....I'm green. I followed the instructions and everything appeared to be working and at the end it said it had been burnt successfully. But when I go to open up the cd there are no photos it is all data. Do I need to use a special cd for burning Photos? I used a TDK 40x data CD-R. I was told I could use any disc except a melody one. I would appreciate any help on this. ...Thank you. |

Depending upon what OS and what you have Windows Explorer set to display with, you might only see file names rather than thumbnails of the images. >I was told I could use any disc except a melody one. That is strange. The Melody brand has a good name and should be able to be used without any problems. >Do I need to use a special cd for burning Photos? No. However, as you want to make sure your images are safe on the CD, it pays to use a quality CD and check that they have been burnt properly by making sure you can view the files on the CD ok. |

The segment folder has what looks like all my photos but just says item 1, item 2, etc and they are all data files. | jonzsie (2689) | ||
| 217305 | 2004-02-22 01:50:00 | When you used Nero 5.5 to burn your images, did you use Nero Express? With the Wizard, you should choose Data then Data Disk and not Video/Pictures as this is for video's and not static images. Try again using the Data option. |

| 217306 | 2004-02-22 02:58:00 | Melody are Good, but when burning, I normally use 24x. Most burners state 40+ speeds, but it is a lot more reliable to burn slower. Bye |

| 217308 | 2004-02-22 05:20:00 | What your burned was a vcd,This will need to be played with dvd software(powerdvd,windvd) or on a stand alone dvd drive(thru a tv) | metla (154) | ||
| 217309 | 2004-02-22 06:16:00 | Thank you all for your help. I didn't realise for photos it was data, I thought movies/pictures meant photos. It worked like a dream when I selected data...I'm wrapt....thank you. PS. Sorry I got your name wrong Peter. |
