PS3 Photo sorting?

I have a family photo album which is perfectly organised into the folders I want, however when I copy the dvd to the ps3 the stupid thing organises it into folders by exif data which is incorrect and not how I want them sorted anyway. How do I get it to copy the folders properly? I can't believe I have to ask this, the system is so unintuitive and badly designed it's unbelievable.
 
Thanks for the input I'll try using a stick, it's just infuriating as I've recently been studying HCI and this kind of design stuff is just so basic it defies belief that a £300 device can't sort some folders properly. :mad:
 
It might work with your DVD, did you just "copy" the folders from the Picture menu? If you did it has probably created "Album" names for them but the names will just be dates which you have to rename (from PS3) to be "holidays", "wedding" etc. But each "date" album will contain the same as the original folder did, on your DVD.

It hasn't done that, it creates about 40 folders named, "Jan 2003, "feb 2003", etc based on the false exif data, some of which only contain 4 files. How come I can create a program in java in about 5 minutes that sorts them fine, but Sony can't do it?
