[CoLoCo] Looking for slideshow software

[John Edwards]

Some windows-based DVD builders (TEMPGENC DVD Author, Roxio, etc) will allow
you to build a DVD that does slideshows of images, with music that can be
played behind them.

In my experience, any DVD disk should be compatible with windows, as well as
Linux, and quite likely, with a standard DVD player as well.
