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.
Philips Digital PhotoFrame Will the tagged photos be reset if I pull out the SD card? No. The Digital PhotoFrame (DPF) will write information into the MetaData of tagged photos. So the DPF will remember the photo's album categorization the next time the SD card is reinserted to the unit. The frame slows down significantly on certain photos. What can I do? This is mainly due to extra processing time needed to decode very large size high resolution files.
