If you tried renaming the file, it must be
EXACTLY the same 8 characters that your
camera uses.
Still, you have to tell us, how are you
trying to display these photo files on your
TV. You copied the files on a CD and you
use a DVD player to display them? Or you
connect your camera directly to your TV to
display the photo files from the camera
memory card?
Difficult for us to try to help if we have
no info about how you tried to display the
photo files on your TV.


I can display them on TV with the DVD player.
It is with the memory stick ( a "SanDisk
Cruzer"" 2.0gb) that does not work.

My TV is a Sony Bravia with a USB slot in the
side, and I have tried the original camera
(Olympus) filenames.

DCF is simply Designed rules for Camera
Files.
It is a way of naming files and all
cameras use this.
The name of the file from your camera
should be something like this:
PICT0138.jpg
or
DSCO1244.jpg

It should be, as above, 8 characters
followed by .jpg

If you rename the files to something
like:
A night in San Francisco.jpg
This is not DCF compliant.

However, you should tell us how you are
trying to display these files on your TV.
DCF compliant was needed several years
ago but no longer needed for new devices
to display files on TV, such as a recent
(a few years ago) DVD player.

I cannot display my photos on TV unless
they are "DCF compliant".

What does this mean, and how do I
convert them to this?

My camera produces 5meg digital jpeg
photos.
