The manual wants you to only import photos from a camera. This technique is side-stepping that requirement!

dropping your own pictures in there is a "cheat". the ipad doesn't know they didn't come from a camera over your desktop. on the other hand, anything not in that directory is safe from being scanned. while sub-directories are scanned for files, the directory structure is not preserved, so save yourself the hassle from organizing them on the card only to have it ignored. it was mentioned in my mini-review on the first page, under "Unsupported Devices". |

I'm still waiting for mine which will ship sometime around the 7th of June.
Is there a list somewhere of raw files it supports? My camera is relatively new (Canon 7D) and there's usually some delay before many programs will support the slightly different raw formats each DSLR brings with it. |

:I got mine last week - turned out to be kind of a bummer, actually. I mostly wanted it to be able to carry around a bigger assortment of movies than the iPad will hold. But, it doesn't recognize my self-powered USB drive as a valid import location, even with the DCIM trick, and importing videos from an SD card only seems to work if the movies are fairly short. Office Space came over fine, but Sherlock Holmes and several other movies with 2+ hour running times didn't. The import would start, but then silently fail after 30 seconds or so. Not sure if it's running time, file size or something else that it's choking on.
Does work fine for photos, so I guess that's something. ![]() |
