Hi there - I've searched and didn't like the answer I found, so thought I'd ask it and see if anyone's come up with a workaround.

I'm a Sony newbie, but old hand with digicams - original Apple QuickTake, Olympus, and most recently Canon.

With both Oly and Canon, I could put pictures on the removeable media and view them on the camera. I have tried with the Sony (DSC-T9) with no luck. Images added aren't recognized, and folders that I've created on the camera and later filled from the computer show as "0 files"

I've seen a few posts indicating that even editing pictures and resaving them makes them non-openable on the camera.

Is this really the case ... and is there no workaround discovered yet?

Kind of a bummer, but the camera is both cool enough and a good enough performer to be a keeper despite this.

Thanks in advance for any thought,

cheer,
MJ

Are you sure that the Pics are MPEGs and not JPEGs or BMPs. They need to be MPEGs for the camera to read it.
