I have Roxio 7 and when I create a DVD slide show and play it on my TV, only
the center of each picture shows. I have descriptions on each photo on the
bottom of the picture. None of the descriptions show when I play the DVD on
my TV set. When I play the DVD on my PC, it looks great, the whole photo is
displayed, including the descriptions. From what I have read so far, the
issue is the TV overscanning. Putting a black border around each picture
will get the whole picture displayed on the TV, but it also includes a
little of the black border. This whole process is a pain in the behind.
