Inserting a Photo Card
Make sure your photo card uses the file structure and naming conventions defined in the DCF standard so the Photo viewer can display your photos. Your photo card must contain folders and files using the following structure and format:
• The folder structure must be: |
|
|
DCIM | 100epson | epsn1001.jpg |
root/DCIM/
orepsn1001.jpg
root/DCIM/123abcde
Where root is the root directory with a DCIM folder beneath it. Your photos may be in the DCIM directory or in a folder beneath it. Any folders beneath the DCIM folder must be no more than 8 characters long, usually three numbers followed by up to 5 alphabetic characters, such as 100epson. Most digital cameras automatically format the files this way, but if you copy photos to the photo card using another device, you may need to set up this structure yourself.
•The photo files must be in JPEG format and named: abcd1234.jpg
Where abcd1234 is a file name 8 characters long, beginning with 4 letters and ending with 4 numbers higher than 0000, such as in epsn1001.jpg.
Note
Your TV can view photos in JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) format on cards that are DCF (Design rule for Camera File system) version 1.0 compliant.
You cannot insert a Microdrive™ disc in your TV.
