Hi please excuse but I am bit of a novice at this sort of thing.
I have scanned around 320 old family photographs and am now organising them and want to give them a simple label or title. e.g. "Aunt Mary at Skegness 1927"
I am using paint shop photo album and can re- arrange the photos in historically chronological order by simply dragging the thumbnails from one folder to another. As well as enhacing cropping etc. I can also add a label or title using the title facility in this software. If I run a slide show from this software then its great I see the photo with the title underneath. Similarly if I print from this software then the title is printed beneath each photo. I can save to SD card or DVD and using this software to read these the titles appear with the photos.
The trouble is that if I use another piece of software to play the slide show or print the photos or a DVD player or the SD card reader on my Panasonic TV the titles do not appear. Furthermore some software and the TV refuse to play the photos in the order they were stored in the folder but insist on re-arranging them according to the time they were scanned in the firstplace or the filename order.
I was hoping to deliver SD cards to relatives that could be read in the right order with captions and printed (with captions) if they wished.
Any advice on producing a slide show that will universally show captions and play in the correct order from a variety of media would be greatly appreciated.
I have searched this forum but the only method for titling seemed to be a rather long winded overlay method.
