Go slow - I'm new to this vcd stuff - any way here's what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to make a photo slide show that my parents can view on their tv set. (possibly with music in the background)

I have a pentium II-660 with a newly replaced cendyne 301240 internal IDE cd burner (which seems to be a verbatim 321240AL unit). This package came with Nero express - and I have updated it to ver 5.5.9.14.

When I attempt to use nero express to create a video CD I get the following failure messages:
Warning - medium is not empty.
Please insert an empty medium
Medium required for the compilation: CD-R/RW
Medium in recorder: ((empty)

I am using Philips 700mb/40x cd-r80's and tried burning at 32x and 8x with no luck.

Do I have to use special medium to make vcd?
Also any ideas how I can make the slide show with music in the background?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Ken

Thanks for responding.
I am usng Windows-ME. Photos are jpg - from kodak dital camera.

In Nero - when making Video CD, does this only work for actual video & not still shots?

Is it worth buying a photo software package such as "Picture to CD & DVD"?
