Hi Jake,
I'd like to use iPhoto. The new version has compelled me to try to
use it seriously instead of iView MediaPro. iView is much more
powerful, but I do not care for the interface. Unfortunately, iPhoto
insists on putting your photos into it's directory structure, so moving
them around is not really practical, and would require re-importing,
which would double the count (i think). My goal here is to get these
dvd albums set up, then, as I import more photos, add them to the
partial "last" dvd. When it is full, I will create another by hand and
continue the process. This way, iPhoto has the data as to which files
are on which DVD. I can even delete the files from the actual library,
and then pop in the dvd and have iPhoto access it as part of the
library. Should be pretty smooth. If this all fails, I can always use
perl to put together folders of the right size to burn.
Thanks again,
Drew

Do you need to use iPhoto to split the files into 4GB sections? How
about
the Finder? move files around into folders, then add into albums once
sorted? The finder might be easier to work with than combinations of
the 2.
just some food for thought!
