Hi, I have got an HD210 and it works with a webserver in a simple Network. But how does it work? Plays it the Video directly over Network from the Webserver? Does it download the files to the local SD Card and play it from there? Thanks for the informations Kind Regards Christian Berlin

  It downloads content to the flash card, and then plays it. So, the flash card is used for storage.
  
  We are doing some testing with streaming video from a webserver, but it's only in the early testing phase.

  What files are you referring to? Maybe, I don't understand the question you're asking.

  When i setup an unit, i get the two files "autorun.brs" and "current-sync.xml" and the folders "brightsign-dumps" and "pool".
  
  When i publish a presentation, i get the files "autoplay-Project2.xml", "autorun.brs", "autoschedule.xml", current-sync.xml" "resource.txt" and "Test.mpg" and the folders "brightsign-dumps".
  
  What is the meaning of this files? For mey chef, i have to write a documentation. I have to write a short description for each of these files and folders.
  
  thank you

  Setup Files:
  

  • "autorun.brs" - This is the setup script. The autorun script controls everything the brightsign does.
  • "current-sync.xml" - the sync file tells the brightsign where to download updates from. It also has a list of files for the unit to download.
  • "brightsign-dumps" - this folder is empty. If the unit crashes and reboots, dump files are stored here that has info about the crash. The only exception is if the crash is caused by a script error.
  • "pool" - this is where all downloaded files are stored, and renamed to match their sha1 hash keys.

  
  
  
  Additional Published Files:
  

  • "autorun.brs" - same as above except this is the standard script that executes schedules and playlists
  • "current-sync.xml" - same as above
  • resources.txt  - system file used for language, and time settings - localization
  • autoschedule.xml - schedule file that lists all playlists that should be played
  • "autoplay-Project2.xml" - playlist / project file that the autorun script executes
