    My parents have a DVD player that can "play" data CDRs, so I made them a Photo CD with roughly 500 jpegs of family photos. I didn't arrange the pictures in folders; I just "dragged and dropped" them all into the Nero Data Compilation Window at the root of the CDR.

    I put the CDR into the player and a menu came up showing the pictures by name. I hit "play" and the CDR proceeded to play as a slide show - so far, so good. At picture #298, the slide show stopped. I went back to the menu and I saw that the menu only went up to picture #298. I tried clicking on the play mode, but I couldn't find any way to access the remaining 200 pictures. When I put the CDR back in my computer, all 500 of the pictures were there. Is it possible that this DVD player can only play 300 pictures per folder? Do I need to rearrange these pictures in folders and smaller groups?

    It is possible what ever you are using on your parents computer to view the pics is limited. You can always copy 250 pics to the hard disk any view them. Then do the same for the last 250.
