THIS is his ORIGINAL post... It was a nice idea while it lasted. But Canon Tech Support gave a big ho-hum when I informed them of my discovery and my suggestion that they update their people NOT to pontificate about something being impossible when it quite obviously was possible. Ah, but who knows? Perhaps behind the scene he is being whipped with a wet noodle. But seriously, merging selected photos onto an SD devoted to use as input to a slide projector is simply too good an idea, and too simple a process, to dismiss out of hand.

Any subsequent postings by him were not in the original posting...

If you thought that it's his original post you didn't read his posts. He started with the idea 3 threads before he started this thread.

Hey BEB, we are discussing THIS thread... He made NO mention of previous threads... Are we supposed to read EVERY thread on the HOG so we can respond PROPERLY to the one posted ? If you read EVERY post on the hog you have a lot more time on your hands than me.

Well if you read only his thread starter for this thread you wouldn't understand what he talked about.

Well, just maybe if he restated what he was talking about ANYONE reading this thread would know what he is talking about... Did he give any reference to PREVIOUS threads.. ? Besides those who have the time to read EVERY thread on the hog, who is to know... If you bothered to even read what I said you would realize regardless of what his previous threads alluded to, my comment just mentioned that slide projectors are archaic and have been replaced by the big screen. A ridiculous debate...

I'm still struggling with the mismatch in the number of hotdogs compared to the number of buns. I believe that it is a conspiracy!

I totally agree. With the standard packages.of hot dogs having six and the standard package of buns having eight it is clearly a conspiracy.

My understanding of what the OP says he is doing, is that he's copying image files to an SD card to use in a projector.

If you have a projector that reads SD cards, then that seems perfectly reasonable to me. What makes it a "bad idea"? I do the same thing for SD cards that I then use in a picture frame.


You have to read the other threads he posted.

Well, in the post I see the word "projector" and don't see the words "TV", "HDMI". I'm basing my response on what the OP said. You apparently have ESP?


Did you read the previous three threads on the subject for more details? Perhaps you should read them if you want a greater understanding of what is going on.

Original post is kind of confusing... I didn't read where OP was attempting anything in camera... Slide projector with Sd input is interesting but modern day slide projectors are called " Big Screen TV ". Most have projector features which access pics from a memory stick in USB port.

The OP actually posted several different threads on the topic. This thread is the most recent. Many of the posters here have read or participated in the previous threads. That is why this thread does not seem to make much sense for somebody who has not read the previous ones.

Others pointed this out yesterday, I read the other threads, and then posted to that effect.

It would have been better for this thread and communication in general if those who had read the other related threads, would have pointed that out rather than chastising me, MrBob and others, for being ignorant.

I hope you do not feel like I was chastising you. It certainly was not my intent.

We who understood what the OP wanted to do didn't chastise you. We only tried to explain to you that what the OP wanted to to do was really not a good idea and not what you thought he wanted to do. We tried to explain to you because I believe you thought we are harsh on the OP.

Yep... Maybe it would be advisable For OP's to use Re: xxx or maybe "Additional info on post re: xxx. We all cannot read EVERY post on the hog so we can be aware of posts that do not make much sense.... How many times do we see folks being reprimanded because they did NOT hit the reply button but instead just posted... ? People get irritated because they don't know WHAT or to whom the post was intended. Just my simple take on it ! As I tried to explain to Bebe, my only comment really was how the "Big Screen" has more or less replaced the slide projector. Ah, What do educators tell us about the lack of proper communication being the worst sin...

There have been people who have received the Nobel Peace prize simply because they exist, so Graybeard is certainly in the running for whatever he is doing, or not doing. Let's be a little more supportive.


I really hate to spoil everything, but I didn't really expect a Nobel, or for that matter, any kind of prize of recognition. I could have hoped for a few less insulting remarks, but I guess any time you post the snipers are out there. Thanks for your more civil remarks.
