I've created a slideshow via Nero Vision but when viewing on either my PC or via a CD/DVD on the tv, the picture quality is very poor compared to the originals. Has anyone else experienced this or am I doing something wrong?
The photographs are JPEG's and are each about 1MB in size. They were taken with a Canon 5 Megapixel camera (1920x2560 pixels) and the vast majority weren't processed. Only the odd couple had a bit of touching up with Photoshop.
The files are 1 M in size, which should mean they are good enough quality, but I don't have a 5M camera to compare. I tried some 430K files and they seem to look OK when played in ShowTime, but yours may be a lower quality. It depends on how much they were compressed when turned into jpegs and if you are now trying to use them at a higher resolution than they should be. If you have some pictures that have not been compressed or done so with a different setting, you might check those. Even the jpeg compression has different settings you might try.
If you use just an image viewer built into Windows, do the photos look OK there (or is this what you mean by "originals")? Are you using any of the Nero Photo utilities, since you stated they had not been processed? I can only guess that the photos are being displayed at a resolution which needs more information than they have.
You might put the photo is some processing utility to see how big it actually is size wise. Do you know which version of NeroVision 4 you are using?
Hi Saltgrass,
The file that comes out of the camera is JPEG (actually Exif-Jpeg).
Every image viewer that I have tried, including Nero Photosnap Viewer, show excellent detail but when it comes to the slideshow they look poor.
I've just purchased Nero 7 Premium and am using Vision version 4.1.0.13.
