Hi Dave

I opened the TV Safe Zone.ptestyle but I haven't a clue how to use it.

I haven't used Styles at all so far.

However I am struggling to understand the idea of attaching a blank black slide to all the other slides.

I will try and put something together.

I would appreciate your thoughts about my first effort to reduce slide sizes on the TV.

Could the parameters Aspect ratio 16:9. Mode Full Screen. Virtual size of slide 1920 x 1080 have contributed to my failure?

Kind Regards

Mel

Hi Dave & yachtsman

thanks very much for your help.

I have put a small show together using 5 identical slides.

I used DVD-Video Disc for players connected to a television.

Aspect ratio 16:9. Mode Full Screen. Virtual size of slide 1920 x 1080.

Each slide has a 5 pixel white stroke border. Duration 10 seconds Transition 0

Slide 1 is 90% of 1920 x 1080 = 1728 x 972.

Slide 2 is 91% of 1920 x 1080 = 1747 x 983

Slide 3 is 92% of 1920 x 1080 = 1776 x 994

Slide 4 is 93% 0f 1920 x 1080 = 1786 x 1004

Slide 5 is 94% 0f 1920 x 1080 = 1805 x 1015

When I played the show on my TV using my DVD Player all 5 slides were identical and with no sign of the white stroke border.

So the TV picture still bleeds off the screen slightly.

yachtsman - where do I find the auto setting for the aspect ratio on the TV? My TV handbook only gives 16x9 or 4x3.

I would be most grateful if you could point out my error(s).

I have a modern Panasonic flat screen 16x9 TV together with a high quality Panasonic DVD player.

When I publish a slide show using DVD-Video Disc for players connected to a television the TV picture bleeds off the screen slightly on all 4 sides.

I have exchanged emails with Panasonic Support but they have been less than helpful.

I believe this problem may be related to modern TVs which have changed format slightly.

I use Verbatim disks.

Would be most grateful for some help.
