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 use a Microdrivedisc or a Memory Stick PROor PRO Duocard in your TV.

Compatible Photos and File Structure (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. 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 folder structure must be:

D:\DCIM\ or D:\DCIM\123abcde\

where D: is the drive letter of your card reader, and it contains a DCIM folder. Your photos may be in the DCIM folder 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.

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 epsn0001.jpg.
