Hello all, I've made countless DVDs using DVDSP4, using videos as well as slideshows. I'm trying to import wedding photos into DVDSP4 to make a slideshow and keep getting random "Importing Assets: Incompatible format" errors. What's strange is it will accept a few of the photos but not all of them, even though they are all the same format. They are large format from the wedding photographer so I've even tried resaving them in Photoshop using "Save for Web" (which is the format I've always imported with) and sometimes it will bring it in and sometimes it won't. What am I missing all of a sudden? I've literally made dozens of DVDs and imported thousands of photos; this is the first time this has ever happened. Is there a setting I need to check on? Thanks for any help!

Thank you, I checked that before posting and everything is indeed RGB. It's so bizarre simply because I've done this so many times...thank you for responding.

How about redoing the batch using Adobe Photoshop/Bridge and make sure sRGB is checked on?

Hmmm, don't know how to do that but I can figure it out. I'm using CS3; I'm assuming I have that functionality...
