"Director" is indeed the industry-standard application for CD, DVD, or kiosk-type interactive applications.

I just don't know what else we can tell you! There isn't a magic-bullet application that will allow you to create elaborate, rich-media, data-driven presentations based on clicking-through a few wizards.

Such work is hard, and that's why such applications are developed by skilled, trained, creative professionals. If you're unwilling/unable to undertake this yourself, you might consider hiring someone to do this for you. PM me if you're interested, and I can refer you to a few.
