Converting Still Images into
Photomovie Scenes
Still images are recorded using JPEG compression, but a DVD player only recognizes the
MPEG standard. That is why in order to display your still images as one more scene in
your DVD, first you have to create a Photomovie scene that will be added as one more
scene along with your movies.
A Photomovie is a slide show of all still images on the disc, where each image will be
displayed for approx. 3 seconds. If you want to add still images recorded on the memory
card to your Photomovie scene, copy them to the disc in advance ( 90).
This option is only available with DVD-RW discs (VIDEO or VR mode).
