Hi, I have a problem I am hoping I could get some help with. I downloaded
PS3 and made my story only to find out that I dont have the VCD burning
capability. I have no clue how to make a VCD now. I saved using the
profiles and tried to burn that but it doesnt not work. I tried to download
PS2, which I used before with out a problem, but now this version will only
allow 5 pictures. Will someone pleas send me instructions oh how to burn a
VCD from PS3 or give me some alternative suggestions?

Thank you

=====================================
All the different programs and versions
can get quite confusing.

As you discovered...Photo Story 3 does
not have the option to burn a VCD. If you
previously burned a VCD with PS2 you must
have had MS Plus! Digital Media Edition
or Microsoft Digital Image Suite software
installed.

It's possible that your burner came with
software that has an option to burn a VCD.
Check your manual for instructions.

As I understand it...the 30 day trial version
of Corel Photo Album 6 has the option to
burn a VCD.
