Philips Digital PhotoFrame

Frequently asked questions

What memory card formats are compatible with the

PhotoFrame?

SD/SDHC, MMC, MS, MS PRO, MS Duo and xD are

compatible with the PhotoFrame. For details, refer to

"Compatible memory card formats" on page 18

Why do some photos load faster than others?

Higher resolution photos load slower. Using a lower resolution

when taking photos will speed up loading time. Smart Copy

™

can be used to resize selected images to decrease loading
time.

How does auto rotation work?

The PhotoFrame will display in a landscape mode if placed on

its long side (as shown on your product box). To display your
photos in a portrait mode, rotate the PhotoFrame on it right
side.

Why are my photos appearing upside down?

The PhotoFrame is placed upside down. Please rotate the

frame.

What types of image files can I view on my PhotoFrame?

The PhotoFrame supports playback of JPEG, BMP, JPEG

Progressive and EXIF images.

Can I connect my PhotoFrame directly to my computer?

You can connect the PhotoFrame directly to your computer via

a mini USB cable.
