Hi
I’m new here so hope this hasn’t been answered before – I couldn’t find anything in search
I’m trying to put some jpgs (which I have edited in PS4 extended with my Mac), onto a memory stick and SD Ultra card to show on a Sony Bravia E4500 via the usb input.
The original files show on the Sony and they play beautifully – BUT now there is a duplicate set of files – same name – but with the prefix "._" These files won’t play, thus making a slideshow virtually impossible. These duplicate files show up on a different brand of LCD as well so I doubt it’s a Sony problem.
Unedited Camera files from the Nikon or Lumix cards directly copied to the memory stick don’t exhibit this problem – neither do files from images downloaded with iPhoto and copied straight to the stick – yet if I open these files in PS and save to stick I get a duplicate set of files.
The files that don’t have a problem don’t have thumbnails when viewed on the stick menu
Files downloaded with Nikon software do produce duplicates without any PS editing.
So I’m thinking PS is adding something on Saving – like thumbnail info (or Nikon software – Capture or View)
I have tried saving the photos in PS without thumbnails but I still get the sane problem.
I have searched for these hidden files on the Mac and Memory stick using Houdini but couln’t find them.
A PC cannot see these files either – only the LCD TVs
Sony Help couldn’t help, neither could Apple Help.
I’m going crazy
Thanks
Alan
