Can someone advise me about viewing photos on a dvd player?

Let us know how you get on :)

I tried it and I'm still getting the same problem.

I tried it and I'm still getting the same problem.

I find this VERY odd.

You have burned a DVD with photos - you get " photo error"

You have put the photos on a Memory Stick - you get "photo error"

You have used an older DVD and this plays OK

 

Is all of this correct ?

 

If you want to see the photos on the TV there is another option - NOT using the DVD player.

 

You can connect your laptop direct to the TV using an HDMI lead.

 

If your dad has a Sky box or Free Sat box there may be an HDMI cable connecting this to the TV.

You can disconnect the cable at the Sky box [ leave connected to TV ] and use this to connect to the laptop.

 

A 2 metre HDMI lead costs about £7 in Tesco.

No, one thing is wrong.

You have put the photos on a Memory Stick - you get "photo error"

I never said that

 

I was asking where the USB might be, I haven't used a memory stick as yet. I'm autistic, so I'm often misunderstood.

 

I tried two discs again , even after finalising them.

Take a look at posts 24 to 28

I posted details of USB location - you thanked me for the details. and said you would try my suggestion

 

Post 28 you said -

I tried it and I'm still getting the same problem.

 

Then you tell me you haven't used the memory stick [ post 30]

 

??????

 

==================================

Try a memory stick.

 

Try the HDMI cable.

 

Let me know the results.
