Abstract: The invention proposes a method and a device for generating a DVD-Video compatible data structure from at least a plurality of still pictures so as to create a slide show, said data structure being compatible with the DVD+RW and DVD+R specifications. In the proposed structure, a set of Ni VOBUs is generated for each still picture, each of said VOBUs comprising one video picture derived from the original still picture and a video gap. The video pictures of the Ni VOBUs only differ by their time stamps. Consequently the proposed data structure is easy and fast to author. The resulting bitrate is low, and the presentation time of each picture can be adapted by setting the number Ni and /or the length of the video gap. Application: DVD-Video; DVD+RW, DVD+R.
