Burning a cd

Am trying to burn pics from "My Pictures" to a cd to view in DVD player. Am
able to burn to a CD-RW disk and view on Computer but not in dvd player. Have
tried to burn to a DVD-R disk but won't even burn it to where I can even view
on computer. When I load it and go to my computer doesn't recognize there is
a disk in. Have tried to go to "My pictures" and hitting "copy to cd" and go
thru all that to where it tells me that I have files to be go to disk I hit
copy to disk and Wizard starts and names file with current date which I
accept and then hit next. Then it tells me no disk.

What DVD burner hardware do you have and what burning software are you
using?

A stand alone DVD player cant read files that are just dragged and dropped to a disk. You must use
some burning software to create the disc.

Also,

It s wrth checking that your DVD player can read photo created discs.
Use NERO to do it and it would be more than likely that there will be
no problem. Make Data Disc in Nero would be crrect i think.
