Many DVD players, even some modern ones, cannot read progressive JPG files. Most should be able to read the faster discs really, but that isn't always the case. Older players and most older DVD player/recorders might have problems with modern higher speed DVD discs.

So they might not read a file named 'Auntie Gemma Drunk at Christmas.JPG' but would read it if it was renamed to 'Gemme01.JPG'.ĭVD players can sometimes be fussy with some brands of blank DVD used to copy the files on to. Older players may not read JPG files with long filenames, requiring the older 8.3 naming format. If the files are on an ordinary CD/DVD burned on a computer they could be the wrong file type, most DVD players will read JPG images on disc but most will not read any other formats, such as TIFF files.Įven if your DVD player can read JPG files many will not read files above a certain resolution, the maximum resolution should be listed in your player's manual. OP, exactly what type of photos are you trying to view as there could be several reasons why you cannot view them?.Īs mentioned, Kodak Photo CD is now an older, obsolete format and most DVD players wont play them.

Might still be worth checking out for users who need to convert old Photo CD images today. Omniformat is still going and has been updated, but a quick look at their webpage suggests the free version now shows adverts in your browser so appears to be browser based now. I also managed to get the files off the CD and convert them using an old, free program called Omniformat which again, i ran in XP compatibility mode.

You also need to change your screen resolution all the way down to 1024x768. I did get them to play on Windows 7 64 Bit by installing the Easyshare software and setting it to run in XP compatibility mode. Yeah I have one DVD player that will play photo CD, none of the other 5 gathered over the years will play them.
