    Well, first off I don't think I'd use Imovie, I'd go with iPhoto for a slide show.

    BUT the easiest thing to do is use Toast Titanium when you burn the slide show - there's a feature that allows you to hard code that into a burn.

    Toast is not free according to Roxio's website.

    I don't have a Mac so I have no idea if it's free or not, but I know Apple has a program called iDVD that is basically designed for exactly what you want to do. Except for the looping. As far as I know DVD players do not support any such function. You will need to simply "copy/paste" your own loop over and over until fill the DVD to capacity so you get as many loops as possible before having to restart.

    No problem. Sorry to hear about your grandmother.

    I know it's tough being the one to make the slideshow; been there before. But when the video is playing you will give a few people a warm feeling in the bottom of their heart ;)
