have black sections on the left and right sides of the screen.

This mode will cause your pictures to be enlarged to the full width of the screen,
without stretching them. As a result, the top and bottom of most pictures will
not be visible.

Only the JPEG format is compatible with the frame. Photos of up to 10
million pixels can be displayed.
2. Question: What should I do if the system does not respond when the power

Answer: Please make sure the unit is properly connected to a power source.
Then turn it off, re-connect the power and turn it on again.
3. Question: Why is the memory card not recognized?
Answer: The memory card might be inserted backwards or is not pushed in
far enough. After inserting the memory card in the right direction, if the
card still cannot be read, please turn off the unit and then power it on again.
