iDVD slideshow help needed

Please forgive me if this question has been asked before and also forgive my ignorance. This is my first time using iDVD version 7.1.1 on my Mac and I am trying to create a movie for my kids to watch of our recent vacation. I used the custom option and created a movie with the over 150 photos taken of our trip. But when I did it I separated photos into different slideshows. I would now like to have the slideshows play continually so my kids do not have to click on each one individually. Is there a way to do this without starting completely over and combining all the photos in one slideshow? Thank you in advance for any help.

Depends on what you mean by "completely starting over," but basically no.

I mean do I have to start from the beginning again. Is there anything I can do to avoid that? Can I export it to another program then combine the slideshows??????????

If you still have all the project files, then you can open iDVD, open the project, delete the various slideshows and corresponding menu butttons, create a new DVD slideshow and import all the pictures (and make a button for this).

To me, that would be "starting over," but I can't see how it would take very long (apart from the iDVD project needing to re-render and burn).
