Digital Photo Frame.
What is JPEG?
JPEG or jpg format is a particular type of file format. Your Digital Photo Frame can only play this type of file. When you take a picture with your digital camera it will normally create a JPEG file. You can tell which files are in JPEG format by looking at the file extension (the end of the file name) were it should say .jpeg or .jpg, for example photo1.jpg. If this is not the case, they can probably be converted. You can call the Customer Helpline for advice on how to do this.
