Presenting a Slideshow
You can use your projector’s Slideshow feature whenever you connect
a USB device that contains image files having a .JPG filename
extension. This lets you quickly and easily display individual images,
or start a slideshow of all the images in a folder. You can control your
slideshow using the projector remote control.
For an instant PowerPoint presentation, convert your PowerPoint
slides to individual .JPG files (save as *.jpg) and store them in a folder.
Copy that folder to a USB flash memory drive (thumb drive), or other
USB device. Then connect the device to the projector and begin your
presentation.
You can switch the display from the device displaying the slideshow to
another source using the
Source Search
button or one of the specific
source buttons on the remote control. To return to the Slideshow
source, press
Source Search
and select
USB
, or simply press the
USB
button.
Starting a Slideshow
1. Connect a USB device to the projector’s
TypeA
(flat) USB
port (see page 57).
2. If you are connected to another image source, press the
USB
button on the remote control to go to the Slideshow program.

If a .JPG file is highly
compressed, your projector

correctly. The projector can’t
