Do pictures have to be adjusted before trying to display them? Does the frame stretch or distort images?

No adjusting is necessary, and there is no distortion, but whichever way the frame sits, it sits (landscape or portrait). There is no changing that. I still absolutely love it.

I have over 300 pictures loaded and did not find any distorted pictures, there is a setting to fit the picture in full frame.

The frame works well with photographs, the resolution is good and if the photo was taken horizontally, fits well. The video mode operation is very poor, I am very disappointed of its use in video mode.

Pictures can bit stretched or fit to screen as needed. My pictures were already formatted but I believe there are many options, including zoom.

Yes! I scanned and downloaded old photos to my computer, then edited to a "4 x 3 Book" size, landscape orientation. They came through on the frame very well. I'm very happy with this frame and am considering buying another.

I'm not sure exactly. I haven't tried to adjust the display time of each photo. So far I have only used the default settings which display each photo about 4 seconds.

I'm wondering, does this frame allow you to select the order of your pics or is it only in random order?Also, can I play music while pics are showing in slideshow mode or is it just one or the other?

It's your video card that controls the stretch. Once there depending on the type of card there will be a setting you can adjust.

I gave the unit to a friend last Christmas. As I recall, there was a button on the remote (aspect ratio maybe??) that changed how the picture filled the screen. May have to hit it several times to get proper proportions.

You may be viewing in the full-screen mode which distorts things. Try using a different setting like actual size I believe.

No, it appears that the frame is low in the pic, however it is higher. We've had no problems with it whatsoever

You can set it up online to allow them to flow automatically to your frame (they don't suggest that because anyone could send anything!). Or you can go online and check the pics that have been sent and put them into your display folder. I chose the first option, less hassle. Hope that helps.

Has a slideshow. I believe you can load pictures to the frame itself. I have mine connected to wifi. The meeframe website was not friendly so I linked my frame to a flicker account and email pictures to the flicker account. The frame then downloads pictures from there. But has to be connected to Internet to work.

I only have about 300 photos on mine and it seems to eventually get to all of them, sometimes repeating some of them. My only suggestion would be to put the photos in ascending order ( and moving some to mix it up) and put the frame on photo order. Sorry I can't think of anything else.

Yeah I dont have any problems with my display, but make sure your camera is decent and adjust to the light so the image looks good. Camera quality makes a difference.

My son connected to my desk top computer and "downloaded" most all of the photos that I had of the family for my mom to take to nursing home. The frame has now been unplugged, dropped, replugged, done the sideways thing and upright and still has all the original pictures and is working most all of the time. Hope this helps you.

Yes, it automatically rotates them. I haven't noticed any distortion, however my pictures are all very large (1200x1000) jpeg files from my camera so I wonder if that helps with not seeing distortion.

The frame will shuffle the pictures randomly if you want and you can choose the amount of time in between picture changes. I find the pictures are quite clear and the frame is large enough that you can see the pictures from across a room (within reason on the size of the room). If you have photos where you did a lot of cropping down the size or that already had poor resolution, those won;t look good on the frame, but you can easilt delete them if you find one. Otherwise all of our pictures looked great! I think there were increments of 5 or 10, so the picture changes every 5 seconds or ten seconds, or 20 seconds etc, whichever you choose. I hope this helps!

Yes, you can change the settings so the pics will come out with the original frame.However, beware that for my camera at least, the quality of the pictures was not so great. In fact, I ended up returning the camera. But, I did get an used item - so who knows. You may get lucky. Taking pictures and being able to print them right then and there really is a very nice to have.

Sorry for the delay in answering. The frame displays the photos the way they are fed into the unit on the SD card, so it does not rotate or adjust from portrait to landscape. You set either landscape or portrait and it displays all photos in that aspect ratio. I don't use the landscape mode as it stretches the portrait photo enough that I don't like the distortion.
