Would you be wanting to just have them view the pictures on the computer or would you want them to be able to "play'" the CD in a capable DVD player? If the former, then that's rather simple, just drag and drop the pictures into a new K3b data project and use k3b to burn the contents to disk. If you want family members to simply pop the disk into their DVD player, as long as that player supports SVCD or VCD playback (most should) then you might want to look at the tovid project (tovid.sourceforge.net). I have done some stuff with this package, mostly to transfer movies over to DVDs, but there is also new work being done with it to make photo vcds/svcd's, which could also feature a musical soundtrack and autofade in and out to the other pictures in the "roll". There's a mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) - look for a subject line "makevcd and slides". Most of the functionality is in "todisc", though. I use the svn repository rather than a debian package, but there should be a package for it. It's mostly shell script and Python. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
