ryt Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 Folks,I am successfully making PTE slide shows that play great on my PC . I have a problem however when I burn to DVD using Ulead Movie Factory 4. The DVD burn process works fine however when I play back my DVD's on my TV, the images, especially the portrait images have part of the image cut off. I believe that I have sized my pictures correctly, and as I say the pictures in the slideshow are fine when viewed on my PC screen. Is there a setting I need to adjust one either PTE or the Ulead Movie Factory 4 software. I am based in Europe and have seleted the appropriate PAL setting.I have tried all the sreen options in project options in PTE however this seems to make no difference to the burned DVDAny help would be greatly appreciated as I am fairly new to all this.Thanks in anticipationRyt Quote
Ken Cox Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 I have found that you have to keep text in from the right side with video builderverticals -- right side lines always give problems -wigggles/jaggies - use full screen pict wherever possiblemake sure you have show tv safe zone checkedpeople have always complained about ulead products -- do forum search for uleadken Quote
Henri.R Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 Hi Ryt, in my opinion Igor's Videobuilder has developed to such a degree of perfection that there really is no reason not to work with PtE de Luxe 5.1; the price is very reasonable, not to say cheap, and all works very easy and intuitive. I worked with a lot of burning applications(from 1992), but for my PtE shows this is the one for me!regards,Henri. Quote
ryt Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Posted March 20, 2008 Thanks for getting back chaps. I do not have any text in the slideshow. It is purely picyures to music. I take on board the comment about Ulead products. Maybe I should switch to vidoebuilder. Does it work in the same way with PTE i.e do I create an AVI file then open video builder and burn the DVD?I look forward to hearing from you.RegardsMark Quote

ryt Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Posted March 20, 2008 This is very important!Did you do this?Hi Dan,Please forgive my ignorance however the "TV safe zone option" is it in PTE or Ulead Movie Factory? And what screen or tab is it on?RegardsRyt Quote
KyDan Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 Please forgive my ignorance however the "TV safe zone option" is it in PTE or Ulead Movie Factory? And what screen or tab is it on?RytI believe it is a check box in PTE when you are setting up your slide show.It shows a box within the normal view box that approximates what willshow when you put your show on TV.I can tell you that things you want to see-- like the top of someone's head-need to be inside that smaller area or they will be cropped off in the DVD.If you can't find it, come back here and someone will show you a screenshot or something, I'm sure.Good luck!!Dan D.Louisville, Kentucky USA Quote
