Great picture - but locks up! Nov 16, 2009
By Buzz Lightyear
The Memorex MDF0841 has a great feature set - 800x600 4:3 aspect ratio LCD with good color and contrast, flexible input ports, loading of pictures by USB, fairly generous 1GB of onboard flash memory, etc. The built-in memory can hold a LOT of pictures if you resize them to 800x600 JPEGs before uploading them. The build quality is decent, and the power consumption is reasonable (about 10 Watts). Unfortunately, this frame has two significant flaws - the first is that it defaults to shuffle mode OFF, so it cycles through the pictures in a predictable order unless you use the remote control to manually enable shuffle after each powerup. The second (and BIG) flaw is that after running for 2-3 weeks continuously, the digital frame LOCKS UP and gets stuck on a particular picture. If you power cycle it, it runs for a few minutes, then eventually gets stuck on the SAME picture as before. Every time. No idea why. The only solution is to take the frame to a computer, reformat the onboard memory, then recopy your photos over. Then the frame is good for another 2-3 weeks. I would have given this product 5 stars if it didn't have this flaw, or if Memorex would release a firmware update to fix it (no sign of one). One thing I've been meaning to try is to skip the onboard memory and store the pictures on a write-protected SD card. Maybe if the firmware can't write to the picture storage (why would it need to, anyway?) it can't corrupt things?
UPDATE: Memorex/Imation tech support has been totally useless so far. I opened the frame up and found that the 1 GB of internal memory is just a standard USB flash drive in a standard USB socket on the motherboard, so you can easily replace it if it goes bad or swap it out for one with more capacity... cool. I'm testing a different one now to see if the frame still locks up. The motherboard also has what looks to be a header for a serial debug cable, for those who might be interested...
FURTHER UPDATE: Replacing the internal USB flash drive appears to have fixed the lockup problem.
