adding to a DVD

[Ken Veal]

I am in the process of editing my dig still cam photos in Paint Shop Pro x and VS11+ with aim of putting them all on a DVD via VS 11+.Is there a facility to be able to add more pics as they are taken until the DVD is full up.That is- I would like to be able to show the DVD on my TV when all the pics are on it but add more as they are taken.They will be .jpg and .png images ..................Ken

No -- a video DVD is complete once made. Nothing more can be added. the only way to do it is to retain your original project file, and reopen that and add the new photos etc, then burn a new DVD each time...

then burn a new DVD each time...

Or use a rewritable DVD if you player supports it.

Thanks for that men, its just that I seem to remember something along the lines of leaving the disc open, but it appears I am barking up the wrong tree

Woof! [Since I usually always translate what I say here in other languages, that means "Yep"!!)

CDs you can leave "open" to add files later, but not with DVDs.

Is your dvd going to be a dvd-video disc or a data file disc?

[Ken Veal]

OK, that confirms I was barking up a CD tree and not a DVD tree.The DVD is to be a DVD Video disc

[skier-hughes]

in which case you can't.
