ENAnnex 3 - Philips TV-Slideshow Format with background music
Introduction
This document explains how to make a Philips slideshow file with background audio.
Be aware that the content of this document is addressing technical or software skilled users.
To start the slideshow open the slideshow file in the Multimedia browser of your TV.
1. Press the 
MENU/BROWSEkey on the remote control after having inserted a USB device and
switched on the TV.
2. Go to where you stored the slideshow file (.alb) on your portable memory.
3. Select the slideshow file and press the 
OKkey to start the slide show.
4. To stop a slide show, press the ‡key.
General Rules
- The slideshow will use plain ASCII XML syntax to allow the creation and editing of the slideshow
files using simple tools.
- All references to network content must be based on the global address of the content.
- Content on a Portable Memory (PM) doesnt have a global address; as a result content from a PM
can never be referenced from a slideshow not stored on the PM itself.
- To maintain portability, a slideshow stored on a PM should ONLY reference content on the same
PM. Referencing global addresses can result in inconsistencies if the PM is used on a non-
networked CE device. The latter is however not forbidden, it is only a recommendation.
- It is preferable that URL’s referencing PM content are based on a relative path starting from the
directory where the slideshow is stored. This path includes the device or drive name of the PM.
An absolute path to content will also be supported.
- relative path: pictures	est1.jpg, tamper.jpg, ..
ew\bird.jpg, …
- absolute path: USB1:\pictures1\foo_bar.jpg, C:\f1.jpg, \organization.jpg, …
General Format
The format and syntax below will be used to create the slideshow file (simple ascii text) with the
extension .alb (.ALB). Examples: slshow1.alb, summer_holiday_2004.ALB, test.alb, … 
The following syntax should be used to create the text file:
 

Title of the slideshow
audio_url
30

slide_1_url 
slide_2_url 
slide_3_url 
slide_4_url 
slide_5_url 
slide_6_url 
...  
slide_N-1_url 
slide_N_url 


Notes:
- the latest version of this document can be found on the Philips support website
(www.philips.com/support).
Use the type number of your TV to find this documentation and other related files.
- Philips can’t be held responsible for any problems that may occur as a result of the content in this

Digital Camera Issues
If a USB connection between your digital camera and the TV isn’t working, you can try the
solutions below to resolve your problem.
- Make sure your digital camera is switched on and verify if the configuration of your digital camera
is correct (see the manual of your digital camera for more information).
- Some digital cameras allow you to switch off the USB interface. Make sure that the USB interface
is switched on before connecting to the TV.
- If you have a digital camera with only internal memory (no removable memory) you can try to
copy the content manually to a USB memory device using a personal computer.
- Some digital cameras allow you to switch between PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) or “PC Link”
and USB Mass Storage. Make sure that you select USB Mass Storage or “PC Drive” on your
digital camera.
- If your camera supports different interface settings be sure to try them one by one or contact
the reseller of your camera to find out the correct setting.
USB Memory Device Issues
- Devices connected to the USB port of your TV must be “Mass Storage Class” compliant. If your
device (digital camera. MP3 player, portable harddisk, …) is not “Mass Storage Class” compliant it
will not be detected by the content browser of the TV.
- The following subsets of the Mass Storage Class specification are supported:
The implementation of the TV is based on the “Universal Serial Bus Mass Storage Class
Specification Overview” (v1.2, June 23, 2003) including all documents referenced by the
document. The document can be found on the USB standardisation website (www.usb.org).
Full support of the USB Mass Storage Class Bulk-Only Transport (bInterfaceProtocol = 50h).
Full support of SubClass Code = 05h; SFF-8070i spec.
Full support of SubClass Code = 06h; SCSI transparent command set.
- For large USB memory devices, when you are in the Content Browser, it may take a long time
before you can access your files.
- When using a USB portable harddisk: Due to the high power consumption of the harddisk, it is
advised to use the external power supply of the portable harddisk to guarantee proper working
under all conditions.
Digital Content Issues
• Only FAT (DOS) formatted (initialized) portable memory is supported. Errors in this formatting
can result in unreadable content. If such problems appear try to re-format the card. Be aware that
formatting the card will also delete all the content on it (pictures, music, …).
• The maximum size of any multimedia file should never exceed 4Gbyte.
• Do not use a dot “.” in folder naming.
• If video streams are supporting multiple audio tracks the first audio track will automatically be
selected, the other audio tracks can’t be selected.
• External subtitle files (e.g. DivX.srt subtitle files) are not supported.
