PhotoVidShow description
Burn your favorite digital images on a CD/DVD and play them in the confort of your own home.

With the power of PhotoVidShow you can now show off your pictures and video clips on TV in the comfort of your own living room. PhotoVidShow is a tool that allows you to burn a CD or DVD containing pictures that will play on a normal DVD player. Once you've created your masterpiece on disk simply play it in a normal DVD player and your photos will be spectacularly displayed on TV as a slideshow.

With the popularity of digital cameras you now no longer need to huddle around a computer or do prints from your memory cards in order to share your pictures. Instead, bring to life your photos as a stunning slideshow which runs off a CD or DVD. Simply insert your created disk into a normal DVD player, and play!. Due to the ability to save the original material on the disk, PhotoVidShow is also a perfect backup solution.

PhotoVidShow has the ability to import video files as well. Most modern digital cameras now have the ability to take small video clips (often with audio), but how are you going to print them off to share with your friends? PhotoVidShow not only allows you to import videos, but you can also seamlessly import them in with slideshows that already contain pictures. So you can now show off your complete film in the same slideshow!
