About JPEG Discs
The RDV-1050 can play back JPEG files on
a home recorded CD-R/RW disc. We refer
to a disc that contains JPEG files as a “JPEG
disc” in this manual.
Note that if a disc contains both of MP3/WMA
files and JPEG files, you can only play back
files of the type selected by the MP3&WMA/
JPEG setting in the PICTURE preference dis-
play
On a JPEG disc, each picture is recorded as
a file. Files are sometimes grouped into fold-
ers by category, etc.
•A folder which has one or more files is re-
garded as a group.
•A folder which does not directly contain any
files is ignored.
•Files which do not belong to any folder are
grouped into “group 1.”
The RDV-1050 recognizes up to 150 files
per group, and up to 99 groups per disc.
If there are files other than JPEG files, they
also count against the 150-file total.
Notes for Making JPEG Disc
Using a CD-R/CD-RW Disc
Select “ISO 9660” as the disc format.
Record your material at a 640 x 480 pixel
resolution.
The RDV-1050 supports the baseline JPEG
format.
