Yes it plays music while showing the slides. I downloaded all my photos from my computer so I can't answer the other questions. Great pictures and easy to operate. The only problem I had was they sent the wrong cord to plug between the computer and the frame. I happened to have one from another device that fit.

You can do slide shows, but I don't use that function. It plays almost every video format there is if you like movies. It works very well and I would recommend it for movies but again I don't know much about the slides but suspect it will work very well. Hope this helps

Yes, once I loaded the photos and video on the computer it played the video fine without any downloading anything special. I use Windows 8

Most of the slides get saved as 4680 By 3072. Which Is saved in 14 Mega Pixel JPEG Format.I personally love the unit. There is also a 20 Mega Pixel one made by them on the market now too.

You can make a slide show, but I am not sure if you can add music. I haven't used it for a slide show yet.

It can play .mp3 music files. Under the frames "Combo-Mode" setting It will cycle through all photos according to the slideshow mode, music repeat mode, and slideshow time. (Remember to press enter on the remote for the settings to stick) ---- I purchased the item "Like New" through amazon for $10 less, foolish move but at the time I was strapped to a gift card limit and needed amazons free shipping. The frame stand was missing, the screen brightness seems to flicker repeatedly and lastly the screen size is actually not 15" but 9x12". Despite the box saying rotate / zoom, this pertains to slideshow effects and not photo manipulation. If your using this as a photo reference tool for an art studio - PICK ANOTHER PRODUCT. P.s The little slideshow transition effects are a little sluggish too.

It's supposed to play both CD and MP3 discs. But whether it's a CD or an MP3 disc in the player, the playback often makes huge skips. Often when a disc is playing, the readback reports "no disc". There seems to be no rhyme or reason. I've been playing with it for several weeks to try to find some consistency. It does its skip-to-my-loo routine on discs that played well and all the way through previously and then plays the same disc a few days later without skipping. Ditto brand new discs. Very aggravating! I should have sent it back.

Hello Eric. This is quite an old device, amazing I got a follow up. This is only a player as far as I know. I do not recall any software that came with it - though it has been 5 years or so.We use it to play on-hold music via a 256mb (yes 1/4 gb) memory stick. Running constant for many years, never a problem. Been a great device.That being said, there is no reason you cannot create a set of mp3 files yourself on a normal computer and then use this device to play them. So many programs to use for such a purpose.

If you turn off the frame, the picture slideshow will begin from the beginning once turned back on. Thanks for the inquiry!

My Sonawave plays music in the root of the drive, and also in a folder. If you still have trouble, just move your mp3 files to the root of the drive. By the way, it only plays MP3 type files. Good luck.

I think you have to have PowerPoint software loaded to play your file. I haven't tried but pretty sure it want work unless you have the engine loaded on a device to run the file.

you need to use a flash drive (I've used my Sandisk Cruzer and it works fine) connected to the USB port to play mp3s (I believe you can view pictures in jpeg from a flash drive too). Make sure you're using the correct type of SD card to view jpeg pictures. Also, the TV doesn't support .avi files. Look in the TV manual to find the correct settings to view or listen to files...it's not automatic.

It seems to me that the flash drives are not the problem. They are made to accept all data. Your frame may not be able process music files which are much different from photo (jpg) files. G. Taylor

Thomas, yes it has slide show feature. Yes, you will need to have WiFi available for the photo frame to connect to. One thing which I'm still having trouble to get the thing work is to connect to my picasa account. It can work with public pictures, but when I want to connect to private pictures the whole thing hang.

The frame does have a slide show feature and has nice transitions between pictures. Transition types and rate can be adjusted. The frame has a built-in wireless NIC which can be used to connect to your home wireless network. I purchased this frame because of the wireless support. I configured the frame to connect to my Flickr account and gave it to my mother so she could see our family photos. The problem that I and others have encountered is the frame loses its wireless configuration after a few days. I'm considering replacing the frame with an Android tablet.

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.
