Hi again,

Is it possible to burn the original photos on the DVD as data? Togther with the produced DVD?
So that I can play the produced DVD on my DVD player and if I want to have the original pictures, I insert the same DVD disk in the PC and access the original photos?

YES! I do it all the time, using Power2Go. I am unsure of other disc burning softwares, but no doubt there are others.
After burning your DVD folder...
Open P2Go to burn a DATA DVD.
Drag your Video and Audio folders into the burn window.
P2Go will ask you if you wish to make this a DVD compliant or some such, I'll get back on that later, but you'll know the message when you see it.
Respond YES.
You can now drag your other media or info into the burn window, and just like that you have a DVD player disc (Standard definition), and a PC DATA disc with items like an HD version of your video, original videos, pictures, music, your disc label, notes about the project, a copy of your favorite aunt's "special" brownie recipe. As long as it all fits, you're good. HP Envy Phoenix/4thGen i7-4770(4@3.4GHz~turbo>3.9)

Hi Barry,
thank you for the answer. it is clear.
But, this means, that I have to buy the Power2Go software as well.

I have a friend, who runs ProShow gold and there you can easily tick a box and the media is burned, together with the production of the final DVD. It's included in the basic SW.

Maybe, I should not ask you, but is there any software available, that does the same, but free of charge?
I did a quick check on the internet, but no success.

Powerdirector is a mainly a video editor, and the disc-burning portion is not it's main function.
You need a disc-burning app such as Power2Go. A freebie that might accomplish that is IMG burn, but you'd have to ask THEM, or maybe a member here will know. HP Envy Phoenix/4thGen i7-4770(4@3.4GHz~turbo>3.9)
