Default DVD Slide Show?

I am using XP Home SP3
I have many .jpg images which I would like to copy to a DVD so that I
can cycle through them during a lecture. When I burn them to a DVD using
Windows, I find that the DVD can only be played on a computer. I would
much prefer to be able to use a "standard" DVD player rather than a
computer (for various reasons which I can't go into here).

1) Is there some way to burn a DVD (too many files for a CD), which will
play on a home DVD Player?

2) Can these be set up as a slide show which will not autoplay, but
rather change scenes when I clich the remote?

Thank you for any advice.

These aren't XP-related questions, but apparently that's par for this
newsgroup :-)

Depends on how your DVD player works.

Mine, an old Sony of some sort, will take a data DVD filled with JPGs
with a standard directory structure and allow you to browse through the
files, displaying them just as you'd hope.

2) Can these be set up as a slide show which will not autoplay, but

Again, it depends. Most likely, if your DVD player will display JPGs in
the first place, it will have some some way to step through the images.

[Before you ask, mine also plays MP3s. I think that these two functions
are pretty common.]
