5 out of 5 stars Bought for my brother   March 9, 2008

I bought one of these frames for my brother as a birthday present (it was a significant birthday!) and he has done nothing but rave about this photo frame. He is not the most technically minded chap, and had something of a (small) learning curve, but almost daily I receive messages or phone calls of delight when he tells me "It does..." or "It is fantastic". He had had experience of smaller frames at work, and, at the time, did not know anything of this size was available. He tells me that the quality of pictures on this frame is something else, and has allocated space on his wall to hang it; it has also meant that, at long last, he is getting round to organising his picture collection!

The photo frame arrived today. It is a pressie for my parents wedding anniversary and I think they will love it. it seems very straight forward to use. I plugged it in- inserted my SD card which I have been loading with scanned old photos-and wow the photos look great the screen is a really good size and even photos taken with my mobile phone look good-I want one!!!

Having bought this device second-hand without a manual, USB cable or remote control, here are some extra tips I found online:

(By the way, nobody is going to get this off me for any money as I am very pleased with it - even without a remote!)

PC CONNECTION

I read in the manuals and FAQs on Polaroid.com for the Polaroid model XSU-01220B (a very similar device to this) that there is no support for connection to a PC. So I recommend avoiding this, as a previous person has said.

USB HARD DRIVE CONNECTION

I have also read in another product description or FAQ on another site that you can connect an external USB hard drive - those ones aimed at the PC market (it must have its own power supply, however). Note that it must be formatted as a 'FAT32' device on a PC first. I have yet to try this.

CAMERA / USB FLASH DRIVE / USB CARD READER CONNECTION

I have myself connected a USB cable from a (battery-powered) camera, USB flash drives and a USB card reader - neither with their own power supply of course. So it will basically take any memory card that fits your USB card reader!

USB SOCKET

The USB socket on this unit is a USB 5-pin Mini Female. Therefore, to connect a standard large ('USB A') plug, you need a cable or "gender changer" adapter that has on one end a 'USB A Female' and on the other a '5 Pin Mini B Plug'. I bought such an adapter for 3 online.

DOCUMENTATION FROM CLONE DEVICES

The following seem to be clones of this unit, to help you search for downloadable manuals and read technical comments and FAQs. The comments can be good but the manuals seem generally poor - perhaps as they seem to be supplied by the same Taiwanese factory.

Digital Frame Company - Omega 15 inch
DSI (Digital Spectrum Inc) - MemoryFrame MF-8115
ThinkGeek - Gigantor 15 inch



4 out of 5 stars Brilliant frame - pity about the crap instructions   June 1, 2008

This frame is absolutely brilliant in colour, clarity, brightness and sound quality. I'm absolutely delighted with it.
The user manual, however, leaves a lot to be desired. There are no step-by-step instructions.
For instance if you want to connect the frame to a computer, logic suggests the USB port on the computer and the PC inlet on the frame, but the manual just says to connect it with the lead supplied. Either end would fit my computer and there are sockets for both ends of the lead on the frame. It does not say whether you have to plug the frame in before switching on the computer or if you can do it on the fly. It does not say whether you have to connect the frame to power and switch on, or whether it draws power from the USB port of the computer. Solution was to buy a 2GB SD card and reader and not bother to connect to computer. I worry that someone new to this could blow the frame if they get it wrong.
Says that sound files must be on the same media as picture files in order to have music playing with a slide show (mine are on an SD card), but does not say that they also have to be in the same folder if, like me, you have stored your pictures by subject in separate folders.
Copy/Delete only gives instuctions for copy. You're left to assume how you delete.
The technical support number on both the user manual and the web site is wrong and you will be given a new number to ring. They will only support over the phone - I tried emailing questions and was asked to provide a phone number they could ring me on. Didn't bother as I have either worked out how to do things or do them in a different way.
