Hi all!
What is the best way to create a CD that plays and auto-runs "projectors" on both platforms? I try writing on my PC but mac never recognizes the projector!!!

I know it can be done...have seen it (usually projector file and .swf files in the directory) ...but how? Do I need to write from a Mac with Toast? Should I hire someone to do it? I AM DESPERATE!!!
Thanks!
 
CD burning.

Projector files are platform specific, meaning a Macintosh projector cannnot play on a PC, and vice versa. You can, however, create a hybrid CD that contains both Macintosh and Windows projectors. This requires CD burning software which has the ability to create a hybrid CD. Roxio's Toast (formerly owned by Adaptec) has the ability to create hybrid CD's. Roxio's Web site has information on how to create a hybrid CD with Toast.



But didn't see the word WINDOWS on the site... So?
