Unable to view edited jpg files on KDL-EX723

[Kaisasvedske]

Got this brandnew tv with all sorts of fancy features, but it can not show our edited jpg files. We allways create our shots in RAW mode, edit the photos and the save them as jpg files. Looking forward to view hollyday photos on the new tv, but got very disappointed and cheated, as this was not possible. Jpgs directly from a camera is shown, but that is not the way to go. We want to edit our photos the way we like them.

We have an older much cheaper Sony TV, and it does not have the same problem. Shows all edited photos without any problem what so ever.

So why can this new, state of the art, expensive TV not show the photos?

Tested all kind of jpg settings, file structures etc. but it makes no difference. Also tested the one hanging in the Sony Center, where we bought the TV, but with the same result.

Again - we feel a little cheated.

Hi it all depends on the quality of the JPEG, with all the advanced feeatures of the new TV's they will not support Chroma subsampling of 4:4:4, you will need to lower the quality of the JPEG, there is no need to save at such a high rate to display on a TV.

Just the answer we needed. Finally someone with technical insight of the problem. Sony here in Denmark did not know the answer, but we are glad you did. Would have been nice, if we could find it in the manual though - were are unable to find it anywhere.

Tryed exporting with different quality settings, and in Adobe Lightroom 3 it seems the quality of 53 is the maximum.

Use Sonys PMB program for Cameras to convert images.

Select the images you want to convert in the program and right click on one of the selected ones.

Go to Convert > Resize and Save

A Window opens.

Settings i use:

- Folder where to save images

- Select Scale images 100%

- Image quality level: HighQuality(6)

- Save

Thats all

I didnt notice los of Quality in the images

Maby in some images it can haphen depends on the JPG.

Hope this helps all that have had the same problem as me.

I've tryed all PS settings and eaven Windows Paint :

The Homestream software from Sony will transcode these over DLNA meaning you don't have to convert them.
