5.15 How to prepare a photograph selection on the com-
puter to view them with the Album in a required order?
If you are preparing a directory of photographs on the
computer to be viewed in a specific sequence, it is
necessary to respect that the Album sorts the photo-
graphs by their names (numbers) in an upward order. Be
careful, you must always use a fixed number (name)
format while numbering the photographs, i.e. the same
number of characters.
Examples of the correct numbering logic of photographs
displayed in a sequence: 001, 002, 003, ... or PIC0001,
PIC0002, ..., etc. Some computer programs are able to
number such an ordered group of photographs automati-
cally (e.g. Total Commander).
5.16 How to create another directory (gallery) of selected
photographs?
The Album features a directory called FAVORITES which
is available to store your favorite photographs. You can
copy the photographs being viewed from other direc-
tories one by one (using the ADD PHOTO to FAVORITES
command in the menu).
If you already have too many photographs in the FAVO-
RITES directory and you do not want to delete them,
you can save this directory among the other galleries and
create a new directory of FAVORITES.
The most comfortable way is to connect the Album to a
computer and rename the FAVORITES directory to
e.g. FAVORITES 1. A new directory of FAVORITES is crea-
ted automatically by the Album upon the first use of
the ADD PHOTO to FAVORITES command.
If you do not have a computer available, it is possible to
proceed as follows:
• prepare an external memory device (a USB disk or an
SD card) with enough free space,
• connect the memory device to the Album and when
connected, enter the mode of viewing photographs in
the Album – use the BACK option,
• display a photograph from the FAVORITES directory,
open the menu (press the middle button) and use the
COPY ENTIRE FOLDER command to copy the
FAVORITES directory to the external memory device,
• check if the FAVORITES directory is really saved in the
external memory device and disconnect it,
• open the FAVORITES directory in the Album again and
delete it; deleting the whole FAVORITES directory is
blocked in the Album, but you can continue as follows:
22
- after the first photograph of the FAVORITES directory
opens, use the arrow buttons to move onto the last
photograph of the directory,
- use the middle button to open the menu and use the
DELETE ALL PREVIOUS PHOTOS command,
- delete the last photograph of the FAVORITES directory
using the DELETE command; then the whole directory
of FAVORITES disappears,
• now find the first photograph to start your new
FAVORITES directory and use the ADD PHOTO to
FAVORITES command; this creates a new FAVORITES
directory which you can use in future,
• connect an external memory device to the Album and
choose the VIEW PHOTOS from CONNECTED option;
open any photograph in the original FAVORITES
directory and transfer the original favorite photographs
using the COPY ENTIRE FOLDER menu to the Album
(they are stored in a new gallery).
5.17 How to save photographs from the Internet to the
Album or vice versa?
If you want to save photographs from the Internet to the
Album, connect the Album to the computer. It will behave
like a standard USB disk.
You can transfer photographs from the Album to the
Internet by copying selected photographs from the Album
to a specific destination location.
To save photographs from the Internet to the Album, first
create a new directory to save such photographs
one by one. If the photographs are to be viewed in a re-
quested sequence, name them in a way that the first one
is named 001, the second is named 002, etc.
Note: To transfer photographs from a computer to the
Album, we recommend you to save them first to a USB
disk (or an SD card). Connect such an external memory
device to the Album and perform downloading or copying
of a directory to transfer photographs. The advantage of
this procedure is that the Album automatically checks the
size of the photographs and may perform their compres-
sion (see the ADVANCED SETTINGS menu).
5.18 Are the photographs from the connected external
memory device to be displayed immediately?
If the photographs from a USB disk (or an SD card) are to
be displayed immediately (without the dialogue which the
Album usually offers upon the connection of a memory
device), name such a USB disk (or an SD card) on your
computer using the name of ALBUM (volume name).
