Photo Story 3

Hi, I am trying to create a dvd with our wedding photos. All is great until
the end when I'm ready to burn it. The Program takes hours to complete. Has
anyone else had this problem? What am I doing wrong? Thanks

Leanne

Leanne,

there is not enough information.
- Where are your files stored?
- What program are you using to burn DVD?
- What's your computer config (Processor, memory, DVD writer)?

It can be quite normal to burn the dvd several hours if you have plenty of
small files, slow DVD burner and outdated computer.

Sounds like your DVD-burner might be broken.
Is it burning other files well?
You can also try to switch to other DVD media brand.
