Photos to DVD slideshow

[Mac'nCheese]

I have a bunch of my grandparent's photos (jpeg) on my imac. I would like to burn them onto a dvd so they can play a slideshow of all of them on their tv. They don't have a computer. Is there an easy way to do this. Whenever we just burn a dvd, it only works on a computer. Thank you.

A few ways you can do this. I prefer to import the photos to iMovie and add music in the background. I have more control over the look of it.
However I think you can make a slideshow either right in iPhoto and export OR add them to iDVD and then use the SlideShow feature there.

Once in iMovie I know you can Share with MediaBrowser and import into iDVD and then output a DVD playable on almost any DVD player.
Not sure if that helps you out or not though.

Thank you for the tips. I will try them this weekend!

with iMovie slideshows you have greater Ken Burns effect control, if you like that style. and can add titles to the movie/slideshow.

working on the same thing for a family party. I created a slide show in iPhoto (with Ken Burns effect) and the exported the whole thing as a .mov file. I guess iMovie will do the same thing but I was much more familiar with the process in iPhoto so I went that way
