I've created my slide show with music in the background. The project is
approximately 25 minutes in length when played. What is the recommended way to
transfer to CD or DVD to view on a Television?
I've created 3 test runs so far and not a single one of them will play on my DVD
Player connected to my Television. When loading, I get an error stating the
device has no 'Play Back'.
When I view the CD on my computer, the picture quality is not as a good as the
original project, which I was expecting. However, I would like to increase the
quality.

I can't help with your non-functional discs. I've only burned one small slide
show and it worked.
But as you said, the quality sucks. As I understand it, the reason is that the
CD/DVD burners in PSE create a Video-CD and that quality is limited to the
resolution of 352 × 240 pixels, unacceptable on all but the smallest of TVs.
So what I did was skip the DVD/CD burners in PSE and instead had it write to a
"Movie File (.wmv)" output file and that lets you select the output
resolution. The native resolution of a DVD is 720x480 so I chose that.
Now that I had a movie file, I used Nero DVD creator to create a DVD using that
file. It allows you to create a standard DVD, menu and all.
The results looked MUCH better.
