Can a movie also be uploaded? I'd love to add a short clip of f-sport gauge in acceleration mode
PS The resolution for an image should be :
12.3x = 1280
x=104.065 ppi
104.065 * 8 inches = 832.5px in width
results with 832.5px by 480px

Well, a little background then. I just traded in my 2013 RX 450h for a 2016 Rx 350. Very happy with the new car.
In the 13 RX, I was able to load a custom start-up image using an SD card. According to Lexus, I should be able to load upto 10 JPEG images to the new car.
I doubt many owners have delved into this subject, but I thought I would ask. I would be surprised if the dealership has ever had this question before.

Don't use the SD slot, for navigation only. Must be from a USB stick.
Edit: I did not notice the 3 pages... so disregard since it has already been responded!

Pics
Hi all,
I am new here, I have a 2016 RX 350 without navigation. I am attempting upload a pic to display all the time (or at this point anytime). I created a folder called images, saved a jpeg there and tried to copy it onto the car. It said, there are no compatible files and to read the owner's manual to see which files it can read. I can't find it anywhere, any help getting it to work would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

The file folder name should be "Image" and not "Images". It should be in the root directory of the USB. Make sure the USB size is 32gb or less and formatted with FAT16 or FAT32. The formatting is crucial and the system can only read this kind of files. And finally, the pic should be less than 10Mbyte in size in jpeg format.

Try another pic that was originally taken as "portrait" orientation. If the pic you uploaded was originally taken in "landscape" orientation and eventually rotated using photo editing software, the pic file will still be oriented sideways. Also try setting the pic first as a start up and see it that will make it work. In my case, I have a different pic for start up and one for off screen and both works.

But that is exactly the reason you put your ugly face in there so when police recovers it, there's no doubt it belongs to you! Unless, of course the thief is smarter than you and put his uglier face in place of yours!

I put a picture of my family up last night no problems. Make sure the file name is not more than 24 characters and the folder name is "image" , case sensitive .

Thanks to all for taking time to reply. Though I had reformatted the USB stick twice under Win 7 Pro and started afresh following the manual to a T, it didn't work until I formatted the USB stick under Win 7 Pro on another computer. Even though the original format was readable by both Mac OS and Windows. Reason #11,277 why I use Macs 99.99% of the time!
