    hi — sorry this is such a basic question (and it is really not “photoshop-specific”), but it does deal with displaying images, so i thought someone would be willing to help me…

    i want to burn a data disc (dvd) with jpg’s that will include some sort of auto-viewer, so that when someone puts it in their computer or on their dvd player, it will display the images, one at a time. is there such a thing? (i would have asked this on the “photoshop basics” forum, but there doesn’t seem to be much happening there)

    i do not want to create a slideshow movie. of course, i could do that a number of ways. what i want is to somehow include a viewer on a data disc that will easily display (auto-display) the images, without having to actually create a video slideshow.

    Irfanview will do that for you. It has several options, from auto-executing a slide show off a cd/dvd (on Windows machines), to converting a folder of images to a “real” dvd that will play on any OS with a drive, or even dvd players.

    Check the documentation for “How to start IrfanView slideshow from a CD?”
    and the “Burning” plugin on the plugins page: https://www.irfanview.com/plugins.htm
