• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

I am a recent mac convert - I have been using proshow on my pc for years. I am looking for something comparable to use on my mac. I don't need anything crazy fancy and complex. I want something where I can pull in my photos and easily overlay it with music and have a variety of transitions. I want to be able to burn it to DVD to play on my TV.

I am not looking to spend much money on it. Any ideas?

I believe that photo has a setting that will allow that, and it's free ;)
Select the pictures you want, then In the file menu select "New slideshow". It gives you options at the bottom to customize.

To burn DVD's i think you might need to work on iMovie (already installed on your Mac) It's basically the same simplicity of the photo so you shouldn't have any problems :)

It doesn't look like there is a way to add text in the photo (im sure there is but im not to certain how), but i do know that you can add it in iMovie.

No, it doesn't. You'll have to use iMovie for that.
