For such consumers, how to properly prepare for the precious materials that they have on hand is still a major problem. Even users with digital operating capabilities have to face different electronic devices and install various drivers in the computer without cumbersome. On the other hand, the more popular playback devices in the general family are DVD playback. 4 1252969 5 Image data in GIF, TIFF or IPEG format will not be read and displayed. That is to say, the DVD burning/player can only back up pictures and video data that match its format' and cannot be used as a broad backup; in addition, the current DVD burning/player has only a simple burning function, not only The data cannot be automatically burned for backup, especially the related directory of the burned content cannot be automatically created. Even if the image data stored in the memory card is in MpEG i or Μ 2 format, the data of the burned backup is still only unorganized. When the picture is piled up, there are thousands of copies in the 10th piece (4), or the picture and image data are interlaced, which will undoubtedly increase the trouble of using the data in the future. Therefore, how to provide a method for properly backing up image data by a user who is generally not familiar with computer operation can be automatically backed up by, for example, a DVD burning/playing device 15 and an image of the MPEG_2 format (4), and another aspect such as a GIF, The image data of the IPEG format is backed up in the format of the DVD and automatically establishes an associated directory for reference in future retrieval, which becomes the target of the industry. In addition, if the DVD player is in the depth of each family, if it is not = computer, it will be directly burned/broadcasted by the DVD (4). The original image will be backed up and the newer part of the player will also be burned. Function, unfortunately
