Looking for the freeware equivalent to "Photo2VCD"?

[KeyserSoze]

I have downloaded and used the Photo2VCD software, and it is great. It allows you to make VCD's with photos, but to also add music in the background, with many additional transitional effects.

Buttttttttt...........it's not free. Anyone know of any similar apps that can do this? I really liked the easy to use interface with it. And I might consider buying it if there aren't any other programs like this. I have already checked vcdhelp.com for any other programs, but didn't see any listed with the same functionality.

TIA

Scroll to the bottom

VCD Easy can also help you do it, but I don't think you can add sounds to it. There's a tutorial on doing it with Nero and you can also use TMPGEnc. Hope this helps.

Alright, cool, I'll check that out when I get home.

Anyone have any other reccomendations? Come on people, don't make me pay for software!

Ok, still haven't found much. I've been doing a LOT of research on this. ANYONE have any other ideas?

**Bump** if you will

You can also try WinOnCD5 (Roxio) makes a very good job of Photo VCD's

Ulead DVD Pictureshow - I forget the publishers - one fof those companies that supply the photo editing software that you get bundled with a scanner normally check it out here
