Compatible Photos and File Structure (CD) If you create a CD-R/RW of your photos using a computer, make sure that you use the file structure and naming conventions defined in the DCF standard so the photo viewer can display your photos. Your CD-R/RW must contain folders and files using the following structure and format: • The folder structure must be: Photo CD D:\nnnnnnnn\ Pictures Vacation where D: is the drive letter of your CD drive and nnnnnnnn is a folder up to 8 characters long, such as \pictures. Any folders beneath the first level folder must also be no more than 8 characters long. • The photo files must be named: photo001.jpg nnnnnnnn.jpg photo002.jpg photo003.jpg where nnnnnnnn is a file name up to 8 characters long (consisting of alphanumeric characters and the ~ and _ symbols), such as photo001.jpg. The file must be in JPEG format. photo001.jpg photo002.jpg photo003.jpg • The photo files must contain a time stamp, so the slide show can display the files in time stamp order. • The photo files should contain thumbnail data, such as that included in Exif format JPEG files, to speed up display of the files in the photo viewer. Note The photo viewer cannot display, enlarge, or print TIF images. You see only the icon on the viewer screens for TIF images. You can write TIF images to a CD-R/RW and view them on your computer, however. You cannot use the TV to write photos to a CD-R/RW disc that was previously written to by a computer. You can view and print photos from these discs, but you cannot write new photos to them using your TV. This is because your TV and computer use different methods for writing files. When you want to write photos to a CD-R/RW, use a new, blank disc. Inserting a CD Before you view photos on a CD, make sure you've connected the external CD-R/RW drive that came with your TV. See page 15 for instructions. Follow these steps to insert a CD-R/RW in your external CD-R/RW drive: 1 Make sure the TV is turned on and the Power light is green and not flashing. 2 Press the eject button on the drive to open the tray. 80 Viewing, Printing, and Saving Photos

Compatible Photos and File Structure (CD)
If you create a CD-R/RW of your photos using a computer, make sure that you use the file
structure and naming conventions defined in the DCF standard so the photo viewer can
display your photos. Your CD-R/RW must contain folders and files using the following
structure and format:
•
The folder structure must be:
D:
\
nnnnnnnn\
where
D:
is the drive letter of your CD drive and
nnnnnnnn
is a folder up to 8 characters
long, such as \pictures. Any folders beneath the first level folder must also be no more
than 8 characters long.
•
The photo files must be named:
nnnnnnnn
.jpg
where
nnnnnnnn
is a file name up to 8 characters long (consisting of alphanumeric
characters and the ~ and _ symbols), such as photo001.jpg. The file must be in JPEG
format.
•
The photo files must contain a time stamp, so the slide show can display the files in time
stamp order.
•
The photo files should contain thumbnail data, such as that included in Exif format
JPEG files, to speed up display of the files in the photo viewer.
You cannot use the TV to write photos to a CD-R/RW disc that was previously written to by
a computer. You can view and print photos from these discs, but you cannot write new photos
to them using your TV. This is because your TV and computer use different methods for
writing files. When you want to write photos to a CD-R/RW, use a new, blank disc.
Inserting a CD
