Importing Photos

Hint

You can turn off the server by pressing \/1 during photo import. The
operation continues even when the power is off.

Notes

• Do not eject a memory card while its card indicator is flashing. The

data may be damaged.

• The server recognizes files saved on up to the 4th layer (the root disc

and memory card are the 1st layer).

• Up to 500 files can be imported to the HDD at one time.
• If you import more than 200 photos to the server at one time, the server

groups each 200 photos into a folder. The server can accommodate a
maximum of 20,000 files.

• If more than 500 files (including files other than JPEG format) are

contained in a folder, some files and folders may not be displayed.

• Some files may not be displayed if more than 4,000 files (including

files other than JPEG format) are contained in a folder on a single
DVD/CD (except BDs).

• If the file name overlaps with an existing file name on the destination

disc, the imported file name will be numbered with a suffix, (1), (2),
etc. Also, since file names are limited to 16 characters, if files you are
copying have longer names, the server recognizes them having the
same name and numbers them with a suffix.

Importing all content from memory
cards (One-Touch Import)

Insert your Memory Stick, SD memory Card, CompactFlash
card, or xD-Picture card into the server. The import procedures
are as follows.

a Touch MEMORY CARD OPEN/CLOSE on

the unit.

The front panel opens to reveal the memory card
slots.

b Insert a memory card into the corresponding

card slot.

The indicator(s) for the inserted card type lights up
on the top panel.

c Touch IMPORT SELECT on the unit

repeatedly until the card type appears on the
display window.

d Touch IMPORT on the unit.

You can use the remote’s IMPORT button instead.
To stop importing halfway, touch IMPORT again.

Hint

Imported folders are named automatically. To rename, see page 90.

Notes

• Photos are imported only from memory cards. (Files located up to the

3rd layer of the DCF compliant DCIM folder.)

• The IMPORT button does not work while importing from other media

is in progress.

• During import, the server creates a new folder for each 200 photo files.

This grouping applies even when the files are grouped differently in the
source memory card.

• Do not remove a memory card while its card indicator is flashing. The

data may be damaged.

• Auto Grouping at the time of import is performed according to the

settings made in [Settings] – [Import Settings] – [Auto-Group to
Albums] ([On] or [Off]).

• When the source contains more than 3,000 files, only the first 3,000

files are imported.

• When the folders in the source memory card contain more than 500

files, only the first 500 files are imported.

• The server retains up to 900 photo folders (DCF) on the 3rd layer of the

Home Menu. No further import can be performed beyond this limit.

• Auto Grouping* will be canceled if it results in a folder containing

more than 200 files. Files are imported without being grouped.

• If the destination folder contains a file of the same name, the server

adds a number to the end of the file name before importing (e.g.,
“….1”,“….2”,etc.).

• When the Auto Grouping function is not used, the imported photo

folder will have the same folder name as the first folder in the source
DCF folder.

• One-Touch Photo Import may not work while the server is performing

other operations.

* Auto Grouping (or Clustering) refers to automatic grouping of photos

in a folder by events.
