either a PC (running Digital PixMaster software) or a USB memory-card-
reader in order to get its images into the MemoryFrame. Check the Digital 
Spectrum website for a list of cameras which are compliant to the 
Microsoft USB Mass Storage specification. You may also want to contact 
Digital Spectrum customer support at to see if there is a software upgrade 
available to support the camera. 
Q:  With my camera connected, MemoryFrame doesn’t display any images, 
even though I know there are images in the camera. 
A:  The camera may be storing images in a non-standard format. 
MemoryFrame camera connection only supports standard JPEG (.JPG) 
files. Consult the camera’s documentation to learn if the camera can be 
configured to store images in JPEG (.jpg) format.  Alternatively, you can 
transfer the images first to the PC.  The bundled Digital PixMaster 
software can download the following image formats to MemoryFrame:  
JPEG, TIFF, BMP, PNG, or GIF. 
Q:  With my camera connected, image display seems to be slow. 
A: The image files may be very high-resolution. Large image files take longer 
to display. Many cameras allow you to choose between different image 
storage resolutions. To maximize MemoryFrame responsiveness, take the 
images with the camera a lower resolution setting. 
Q: I have attached a USB card reader to MemoryFrame with my camera’s 
memory-card inserted, but MemoryFrame does not recognize the USB 
card-reader. 
A: Even though the card-reader is a USB model, the card-reader may not 
support the USB Mass Storage specification. The DirectConnect
TM
 feature 
of  MemoryFrame allows a user to directly attach a USB card-reader 
without the need for a PC.  For this DirectConnect feature of 
MemoryFrame, it is specified that the card-reader needs to support the 
USB Mass Storage specification. This spec (co-authored by Microsoft) is 
built into Windows 98SE, Windows ME, Windows 2000, and Windows 
XP.  If a card-reader supports this specification, then it does NOT need its 
own custom driver from the card-reader manufacturer for Windows to 
recognize and be able to utilize as a “drive letter” in Windows Explorer.  
This specification allows you to drag images from the card-reader onto the 
hard-drive without requiring a custom Driver.  If the card-reader is not 
recognized by MemoryFrame, then the card-reader won’t work in 
DirectConnect mode.  Such a non-compliant card-reader must use a PC 
(running Digital PixMaster software) in order to get its images into the 
MemoryFrame.
