All dvd-slideshow and co. do is to resize images (that's a one liner with
imagemagick's convert tool) and then join them to compose a video file,
muxing it with the chosen audio tracks. You can easily do that with ffmpeg,
mencoder or some similar tool of your choice if the menu-driven program
doesn't let you bypass the dvd size limit.

A video file is the most universal format you can get, unless you want to
relly on the tv native player capabilities to do a slideshow, which would
also be just fine since any tv that has an usb port can for sure do
slideshows as well.
