Ulead DVD PictureShow 2 - Digital Camera Suite
Get your digital photos off your PC and onto TV easily with DVD Picture Show Digital Camera Suite.
The disadvantage of digital cameras is that you don’t have a handful of photos to pass around the room. Unless you want to print your pictures out yourself, show them to friends and family means crowding round the PC, but if you’ve got a DVD player you can see your photos on TV instead by creating a Video CD.
DVD Picture Show Digital Camera Suite includes everything you need. Download photos from your digital camera, organise them in Photo Explorer 7 Pro, then create a video CD or DVD with DVD Picture Show and add a finishing touch with a custom label in Photo Express 4. These are separate programs, but they all have a Switch menu for loading the other programs.
Photo Explorer is a good way to organise your digital photos, which you’ll need to do once the pictures start to build up, although it does need a lot of memory to cope with large folders of pictures. You can do simple editing of your photos in Photo Explorer, correcting red eye, brightness and contrast, colour and focus, or for more options you can turn to the tools in Photo Express, which also lets you add text to photos and warp it into interesting shapes. Photo Express has a lot of tools and templates for turning your photos into projects with borders and backgrounds.
DVD Picture Show takes you through creating DVDs and video CDs of your photos, step by step. It automatically resizes your photos to fit on TV screens but you get plenty of options for picking pictures in the thumbnail view, rotating any that are the wrong way round, choosing how long each image is on screen for and setting background music. You can also pick a template for the on-screen menu. This is one of the simplest tools for making DVDs and video CDs of your favourite images, and bundling it with the other tools means you’ll be able to make the most of your images first. –Mary Branscombe

Customer Review: Has great features but there is a flaw with this product…
I bought this after reading reviews and seeing the recommendations from Computer magazines. It is very easy to get started and create your own slideshow to play on your DVD player, you can add a background audio track and have a choice of various types of transition effects between photos. BUT, when creating a CR-R slideshow without any transition effects there is an annoying flicker on parts of the image. This is not present on slideshows with transition effects, but the images are shown at a lower resolution. This flicker problem is mentioned several times on the Ulead website technical forum. There is a patch provided on the website and an anti-flicker setting in the preferences section. These have not made any difference. My advice is, if you would like high resolution images displayed on your TV and are not concerned about transition effects betwewen photos,try DVD Pictureshow 1. This version is flicker free. I have contacted the Ulead Technical Support but they refered me to anti-flicker patch from the website and the anti-flicker setting in the program, but as I have mentioned these don’t work.
