VCD Timing
I created a VCD from a slideshow that ran perfectly on the PC (the file was generated at the same time as the VCD file). However, the timing of the music and the slides is way off only on the VCD. I would have thought that since I did it without transitions, the music would last longer than the pictures. However, it is the other way around. Any ideas to fix this? |

Hello Keith & Niki Not all DVD players play VCDs properly. Can you try the CD in a friend or neighbours machine? Chris. |

VCD Timing
I have already tried it in other DVD players and the timing is the same and is not in synch with the PC based slideshow. I even played it on the PC it was created on using WinDVD and it played the same way with the timing off. info@ wrote:Hello Keith & Niki Not all DVD players play VCDs properly.

VCD Timing
I am not using this program anymore (just could not get it to run properly on my PC) but I am using another. I also had timing problems. On my PC all played fine but on my DVD player the timing was off. The answer I got to this was that slideshows on a PC are played through the video card while on CD through a DVD player they are not. So the answer is to know the time of your photos (all photos for a slideshow) and match that with the music. If you have 20 photos and the time is 5 seconds per photo you have 100 seconds or 1:40 minutes of play. If your music is 2:00 minutes then you will need to add 1 second to each photo. (20 photos times 6 seconds equals 120 seconds, which is 2 minutes). I just got this info yesterday and have not made a CD yet but it makes sense.

VCD Timing
That is how I verified the timing as it was working in the PC slideshow to the second, but it is off about 10 seconds for the first song on the VCD.

VCD Timing
The idea is NOT to time to the PC slideshow. Time the photos to the music no matter how it comes out with the PC. When I timed my photo-time to the music-time only the CD played perfectly!
