I do this all the time.  Most of the slide shows that I make are on 
DVDs and they work perfectly in TV DVD players.  I use ProShow Gold, 
but there are lots of programs you can use.  You just have to be sure 
to burn them as NTSC format for USA players and as PAL format for 
European players.  Both choices are available in ProShow Gold and 
both work fine.  I recently completed a DVD on the Near East School 
of Theology in Beirut, Lebanon, and copies have been sent all over 
the world to many types of DVD players and everybody has reported 
that they work fine.  It has both a music sound track and narration 
to go with the slides.  I used to have to copy these programs onto 
VHS tapes and DVDs are so much easier and better!
