This is a really hard question to answer without knowing what kind of camera and what kind of computer you have. You probably have a program that you can use for this, but different programs are available for different types of computers. Add additional information to your question or ask another question with more information. Windows or Mac? What kind of camera?

You will also need to check to make sure that your disc drive will burn DVD's. Some can't.

The whole thing could be really, really easy, but it's impossible to tell without knowing exactly what you're working with!

Getting a slick, free-running photo cd/dvd for presntation purposes is all about software. Check your CD-Burning software, or any utilities that might have come bundled with the camera's discs, or any functionality which may be included in your image-viewing software if you use it. Follow the instructions/help files. Failing that, see what's available to purchase. Some video file formats will indeed play directly on a cd/dvd player if they are simply copied to an optical disc. But they are very much 'as is'. Timings, transitions, titling, interactive functionality and so on (basically the stuff that makes your presentation look polished and professional and nice to use) is down to the creating/authoring software you use. The quality of your source material is also significant. Low resolution, and/or tightly compressed image and video files will look poor whatever software you use, especially now we are all used to HD quality broadcast and commercial footage. Shoot any material you intend to present at maximum quality settings, highest resolution, and maximum pixel dimensions.
