Great tool if you have no other method to preview pictures on a big screen tv. Fairly easy to use.
When the photo album boots up, it initializes on picture "1 of 512". I bought this product to build my own digital picture frame. I have corresponded with Sandisk about this problem and all recommendations from them (updated firmware, etc). Works great but I can only get the photo album to read and display 512 pictures from the card. I am using a 1GB card that contains about 650.jpg files on it. have not solved the problem. If anyone else has had this problem, please let me know.If you want to limit your photo viewing to 512 pictures, this is a great product.
If you like to gather with your family and friends to look at your conventional photo album, sometimes you can hardly see the pics. This Sandisk product is fantastic. Really easy to install, fool proof to use and it just works beautiful. this way is so good that everyone can take a look a t the same image at the same time (depending on the size of your screen) and everybody can comment about it and have great time.You'll love it. Works with any memory card out on the market and it can be used with PAL or NTSC format types, so no worries taking it to Europe or anywhere in the world.
Now my wife and I should be able to watch them togeher, raher than trying to watch on my computer screen).What I don't get is tha Sandisk has some really great hardware but has simply failed to build consumer awareness. I actually go the viewer to do two things -- see my new grandson's photos on the 42 inch TV and as a device to integrate all my files on some dated or small flash memory (old CD cards, some small usb sticks, etc). That is something Jobs has done incredibly well. The viewer's ability to mix the display of photos has been a real torture for my friends, since they have to sit through hundreds of photos of my grandson, but since I get most of the photos over the web, I can easily connect the viewer to my computer, download the photos to my 8 gig usb stick and build a photo collection without equal in either quality or convenience hat plays easily on my TV. Now I can't wait for Sandisk's new gadget to download video and show it on my TV, so I can show off my youngest son's UTube videos as well as download some movies that don't get much US TV time (I got the world TV software and it includes movies shown in Australia and other countries that never get play in the US. He's taken some pretty ordinary hardware (like his useless iTV thing) and branded it so that the average consumer really thinks there is some difference between his NAND chips, operating system and smart phone and those of other companies. He's the Barnum of the gadget age.
After reading a bunch of reviews, I bought one of these. There are a few photos that don't show up and I just need to figure out which formate those are in, I think TIF.I have a 36" plasma and the pictures are just brilliant.I may buy another one for a present. I have found it to work just as promised.
I now have an entire tv assigned for my picture slide show. That was the only problem I saw on reviews. Amazon and Ebay had the best prices.
On a other review someone mentioned to wait to put the memory card in until it asks for it. I love that I can finally see my digital pics more often. I plan on sifting through my entire collection to get the good ones.As for the working of the device.
I love this technology and the device as well. Sandra
