99 slides limitation reflects the 99 chapters per timeline limitation of DVD-Video. Chapters are important as they are the only way to quickly navigate from one slide to the next.
You could try adding all of your clips to a timeline (I believe it will hold 255 stills, but again, you are limited to only 99 chapters per timeline. Another limitation of this method is that your images can’t have transitions added. One variation of this would be to put your images together in Premiere or your NLE of choice, and then export an AVI for use in Encore.
Also consider linking multiple slideshows together with different music fading in and out of each.
Finally, to add transitions at the head and tail, import a black still and use it at the beginning and end of each slideshow.

Go to the Disc panel, then look at the Properties panel. It’s a field there.

Overlap = intersect.

Overlapping buttons means the bounding rectangle containing a button overlaps the bounding rectangle of another button. This will produce an error condition on the final DVD…the button rectangles must not overlap.

Moe – in Check Project, double-click on the menu with overlapping buttons warning. This will open the menu that has the error. Then turn on Show Button Routing in the Menu editor and relocate any button that overlaps another button.
Title menu is the menu that comes up when you press the Title or Top Menu button on your DVD player remote control. Usually, you want your beginning menu to come up here. Set Title Remote in the Disc properties.

Encore has no trouble erasing RW discs…I’ve used the same RW discs hundreds of times in Encore, and never had a problem.
Most likely this is burner or disc issue. Or an unhappy combination of both. Try another brand of RW media, or another burner.

Boy, it sure would be nice to find out how this all ended up, David/SkylineAtlanta (for those readers that don’t also frequent the Adobe Encore U2U forum).
Please do tell…

The best way to do this is in Encore 2.0 using playlists and chapter playlists.
Have a playlist that contains all the timelines in the order you want to play when you Play All, and set up chapter playlists that are specific to each timeline (i.e all chapters in timeline, or just a single chapter). Set the appropriate end action for each playlist and chapter playlist (usually Return to Last Menu).
Link these playlists/chapter playlists up to the appropriate buttons and you should be good to go. If your menus are not motion menus, this will add only a few hundred kilobytes (a miniscule amount on DVD) to the size of your project.
