xat slide show - monster temp file - hangs up

I am getting EXTREMELY frustrated trying to create a VCD of my
recent trip to Disney World. If I leave out all music files, it
works, but as soon as I add some background music, it goes into
orbit. It seems to hang up - creating an ever larger temp file (up
to 4 gigabytes) then pops up a message saying my disk is full -
which is not true - I have over 100 GB available. Then when I click
OK on the error message, I have to abort and all is lost.

What the heck is going on? I have tried both wav and mp3 files with
the same problem. Someone please help!!

I just want a simple menu with multiple slide shows with background
music. Is there another program that will do this with good picture
quality on a large screen TV set?
