Organizing Photo Albums
Unlike music files, photos contain little information about their content. Therefore, photos are
organized by their filename and by the folder they are in. Many digital cameras will organize
your photos into folders when you connect and unload them to your PC. Each time you dock
or connect, a new folder is created using the current date and time, and all photos are copied
into that folder.
To simplify browsing on your DSM-520, you can create folders on your PC. For instance,
create a folder in the My Pictures directory called
Vacation
and copy all of your vacation photos
into it. Your DSM-520 will show the
Vacation
folder. To play a slideshow of the folder, highlight
it and press the
PLAY
button. To view a list of photos in the folder, highlight it and press the
right arrow
button.
You can give your photos meaningful names by renaming the files on the PC. Most digital
cameras number photos sequentially. For example, rename the photo
IM001125.jpg
to

on your PC. The photo will be displayed as
sunset.jpg
on your DSM-520*.
You can create as many folders as you need. Create a folder for the year, then create folders
inside for each of the months, and then folders in each month for special occasions (birthday,
vacation, holidays, etc...).
