Create CD/DVD from LightRoom or Flickr?

Hi,

I have been doing photos for the team that my daughter plays hockey for this year.

So far I have close to 2,000 photos, which I have in 20 different photostreams in Lightroom. I have also uploaded these to Flickr as jpegs.

Someone from the team has asked that I put these photos onto CD's/DVD's and provide them to the team.

How do I do this? I can't seem to find anything within Lightroom that lets me have an option of burning a Photostream onto a disk?

Can this be done either through Lightroom or Flickr?


Thanks


Tony

Does it have to be on CD/DVD? I'd use a flash drive personally. What you could do is tag the photos in LR with a certain keyword, and then make a smart collection that filters by that keyword, that way all the images you want to use for the CD/DVD are on the screen. Export them all to a new folder on your desktop. Boom, done.

Hi Aepoc,

I will experiment with that and hopefully get it to work.


Thanks

You're welcome.

From what you stated in your OP. may we assume that you are NOT using Lightrrom 3 or 4.

If you were, I would suggest the following.

• Create a Publish service to export selected images to Hard Disk.
  
• Given the number of images to export (and the capacity of CD/DVD), split the publish service into various (smart) collections.
  
• Add the requisite images to the various publish service collections.
  
• Publish the images via the service.
  
• Use your Operating System software options to burn them to disk.
  

• Use various combinations of numeric and/or colour ratings to split the images into various groups.(Again for CD/DVD capacity reasons)
  
• Export the images to hard disk.
  
• Use your Operating System software options to burn them to disk
  

Exporting to a CD/DVD is not available in the 64-bit Windows version of Lightroom.

Otherwise, you can do this in Exporting:

I'm not familiar with Photostream. While LR cannot export directly to DVD in Win 7 64-bit, there is nothing that prevents writing files into a folder, then simply choosing the files in that folder to burn onto a DVD using the inherent Windows 7 Explorer capability.

Yeah, that's all you gotta do -- it's pretty simple, actually!

Hi,

Thanks for all the help.

I am doing the export thing to a folder on my desktop and will burn them from there.

Oh, does it matter about which color option you use during export? (ie sRGB / adobe or ProAdobe?)


Thanks Again

Yes.

Use sRGB.

Yes.

Use sRGB.

Ack.

Thanks

Yeah, Tony, for general use sRGB is best because it's "universal". Adobe RGB can be good for some things, like editing for and printing on a printer that can actually produce full results from aRGB, but in general sRGB is "safe" and will look the way you want on the broadest spectrum of monitors, printers, and viewing software.
