Where to save music data
Create a folder named "PSP" directly on the Memory Stick Duo™, and then 
create a folder named "MUSIC" in the "PSP" folder. Save music data in the 
"MUSIC" folder. The PSP™ system will not recognize data items saved 
anywhere other than in this folder.
Hints
• If a folder named "PSP" has already been created on the Memory Stick Duo™, create a 
"MUSIC" folder within it.
• You can create folders within the "MUSIC" folder (Figure 1). The system will treat it as 
a group.
• Folders created within subfolders will not be recognized (Figure 2).
• If you want to specify the order of the tracks, create an m3u file specifying the order in 
the folder. The system will display the file as an   (m3u) icon and treat it as a group.
• If a music file that is not of a supported file format is saved in the "MUSIC" folder, the 
system will not recognize it.
• Music files in MP4 (AAC) and WAV (Linear PCM) formats can be imported and played 
in the same way as MP3 format files.

84 Saving images on a Memory Stick Duo™
filename H:\#Sagyocyu\#10 
OCT\1007\2649166121_PSP1001K_US\01EN11PHO.fm
The following two methods can be used to save images on a Memory Stick 
Duo™.
When using a digital still camera that is compatible with the Memory Stick 
Duo™, photos can be displayed by inserting the Memory Stick Duo™ from the 
camera directly into the PSP™ system. Photos on the Memory Stick Duo™ will 
be displayed in the system's "Digital Camera Images" folder.
Hint
You can use Memory Stick Duo™ media with a digital still camera that can handle only the 
standard-size Memory Stick™ by using a Memory Stick Duo Adaptor (model number 
MSAC-M2: a Sony product sold separately).
You can save images using any of the following methods:
1Use a PC with a Memory Stick™ slot.*
2Use a USB cable ( page 106).
3Use a commercially available Memory Stick USB reader/writer.*

* A Memory Stick Duo Adaptor (model number MSAC-M2: a Sony product sold 
separately) is required if the slot on the device you are using is able to handle only the 
standard-size Memory Stick™.
Where to save image data
Create a folder named "PSP" directly on the Memory Stick Duo™, and then 
create a folder named "PHOTO" in the "PSP" folder. Save image data in the 
"PHOTO" folder. The PSP™ system will not recognize data items saved 
anywhere other than in this folder.
Hints
• If a folder named "PSP" has already been created on the Memory Stick Duo™, create a 
"PHOTO" folder within it.
• You can create folders within the "PHOTO" folder (Figure 1).
• Folders created within subfolders will not be recognized (Figure 2).
• It may not be possible to display some images, depending on the size of the image data.
• Images edited using a PC may not be viewable on the PSP™ system.
