I tried to burn some pictures with music on a DVD using Windows DVD maker, but others cannot open or run the disc. I tried to use DVD-R and DVD + R, but nothing works. Any suggestions?

I have created a slideshow with background music using Windows DVD maker on a DVD-R and DVD + R and others cannot open or run the disc. I can't run into a DVD player, but my computer it plays very well. Any suggestions?

Lol it won't play in my DVD player either. Just the computer.
