I just got my Brightsign600 and am having trouble getting my media to play. I downloaded the demo and it works just fine. What I want to do is play a mpeg-2 with audio one time by pressing Button 0 and then repeating this process for each time I want to play the video. Can someone in support please tell me how to do this. Your instructions are complicated.

    Do you want the video to start playing when the HD600 starts up, or for it to do nothing until button zero is pressed?



    I'm emailing you a sample csv file that will do as you ask. I'll post the text of it here as well.

    I wanted it to start playing after the button is pushed. Thanks. I will try your email info and see if I can get it to work.

    Keith,



    I sent a simple csv file showing how you could playback a video when button zero is pressed. You also asked about forcing the unit to component out when it starts up. Here's the csv file that I sent you.



    If you open the csv file using a program like excel or any spreadsheet, it reads better because it's layed out in a grid format.



    IMAGEMODE,3,,

    VIDEOMODE,1280x720x60p,,



    EVENTS,,button:0,videoend

    STATE,blank.bmp,video.mpg,

    STATE,video.mpg,,blank.bmp





    1. imagemode,3,, - scales images to fill, without keeping aspect ratio.



    2. VIDEOMODE,1280x720x60p,, - forces component out at 720p





    3. You'll notice there are 2 STATE entries. When using the csv file, there's a STATE entry for each file that will be played. For this example, there's blank.bmp and video.mpg.



    This csv starts up displaying a bitmap image (blank.bmp) that's all black. If button zero is pressed it plays the video. If button 0 is pressed during the video nothing happens.



    Once the video ends, it plays blank.bmp again.
