how do i burn photos on to a dvd-r? can i? why does a cd-r not hold as many photos?

Photo DVD Maker can burn photos to DVD and CD, you may want to know the difference between them. The basic difference is the amount of storage on each disk. CDs have 700MB. DVD single layer have 4.7GB. So DVDs can hold over 6 times the data. You can use both for pretty much the same things. DVD is the disk of choice for movies so the home players are primarily DVD players.

You can try VSO PhotoDVD – Which is the easiest photo slideshow software to create beautiful DVD slideshows of your digital pictures. Share your digital pictures in an original way by watching them on TV with any DVD player. With PhotoDVD create movie like DVDs of your pictures and music, with a menu complete with chapters, audio and subtitles selection.
