Wondershare DVD Slideshow Builder Deluxe

The name DVD Slideshow Builder Deluxe is something of a misnomer Wondershares  application does, in fact, help you build slideshows And yes you can burn those slideshows to DVDs that you can play back on your TV. On top of that however you can save the slideshows as video files that are compatible with mobile devices and Web services making DVD Slideshow Builder Deluxe a whole lot more useful than its name implies.

When you first launch DVD Slideshow Builder Deluxe it can seem a bit overwhelming with its various windows and tabs for organizing, personalizing and creating slideshows. But taking the time to read through Wondershares brief getting-started guide and I do mean brief its only four steps long is worthwhile. You will be adding files and creating slideshows before you know it.

After you add photos you can easily rearrange and delete them as necessary as well as tweak them using the built-in editing tools. Once your photos are set you can apply a style and other customizations to the slideshow. This is where I found some of the features to be confusing at times but thats largely because the program offers so many options.

For instance I clicked on a theme expecting the application to apply that theme to my slideshow but instead it merely presented more options for that theme. This software can be a bit much if you are looking to create just a basic slideshow but if you want to put the time and effort into using DVD Slideshow Builder Deluxe you will find plenty of features here You can add music, clip art credits and other elements.
