2.0 out of 5 stars Much better programs out there, May 2, 2006

This review is from: Nero PhotoShow Deluxe 4 (CD-ROM)

I'd heard good things about Nero, after using Roxio to create video CD's I thought I'd give Nero a try. I was extremely dissappointed. For the first time user who doesn't know much different they probably would think it was great. Very easy to use. Unfortunately, it's also very limited. Which is my biggest problem. I would like to be able to edit the slideshows and you can not do it.

You can't edit the sequence of the pictures when creating a slide show. Once you view the slide show you can't add or delete a picture without creating another one and starting all over.

You can only use one song.

You can't chose how long the transitions are. Also there are no preview of what the transitions do.

The themes are cheesy looking.

These might seem like minor issues, but for anyone that has ever created a slideshow you know that editing is a or should be a basic function. I don't claim to be a expert user of slideshow creations, but I do suggest even the most novice would be better off selecting Roxio, or another program.

1.0 out of 5 stars Great if you don't won't to actually Burn a DVD from it, May 5, 2006

I love the simplicity of use in arranging a slideshow. It is even great playing the slideshow on the computer...but beware if you actually want to burn a DVD of your slideshow. We have had two responses back from NEro but they have been unable to help us with this. We have also loaded the program on two different computers and have been unable to burn a DVD from it...even their sample show. We have the PHotoshow Deluxe 4.5 version that does include the ability to burn DVD's.
Don't waste your money on this one. Very dissappointing!!

This review is from: Nero PhotoShow Deluxe 4 (CD-ROM)

Simplicity is with the picture slide show available in Nero 7,
but it is limited, to among other things, 99 pictures. And it is a great deal easier to use than PhotoShow Deluxe 4. Which reminds me of trying to buy a used car. The salesman (in this case Nero) continuously tries to sell you something else. Never mind your concerns about the product you just bought. This product is not user friendly and, for me, failed to save the slide show and since there is no SAVE button... I sent "Nero
support" an Email five days ago today. No response at all. The e-mail address used is contained in the manual. Deluxe 4 does not show a list of the music you desire to play and the film strip of the pictures you want to use is so small; I can't make out what is what. There are some great functions... some just don't work.
Would have to rate this Nero product a Do not buy.
