VideoBuilder in PicturesToExe Deluxe allows you to quickly and easily burn DVD-Video discs from your slide shows. You can adjust DVD menus and customize many parameters of your DVD disc. You may also create AVI video files. If desired, you can protect your slide show with a password and also assign an expiration date. No additional programs (including PicturesToExe itself) are needed to run the resulting slide show because the program produces a stand-alone EXE file.
The slide show will work under Windows XP, Vista, 95, 98, ME, 2000 or 2003. A DVD-Video disc created in PicturesToExe Deluxe can be played on any DVD player, on a PC or Mac, or on your DVD player attached to a television.
