Syncing Multiple XC4055 Players

Hello everyone!

I have (6)  XC4055 Players. I am trying to have each player along with each of the 4 outputs Play 4 videos in series then repeat indefinitely. These 4 videos would be the same videos in all 4 outputs and across all 6 players. All videos are all exactly the same length. How can I make all the players and outputs stay in sync. Thank you.

    Hello,

    To synchronize six BrightSign XC4055 players, each with four outputs, so they all play the same four videos in sequence and loop them indefinitely while staying perfectly in sync, you’ll want to set up a master-slave synchronization system using BrightSign’s built-in tools like BrightAuthor:Connected or the BrightSignOS web interface. Start by creating a playlist that includes the four videos in the desired order, ensuring they all have the same resolution, frame rate, codec, and duration. Assign one of the XC4055 players as the master, and configure the other five as slaves. Use BrightWall or synchronized zones to enable frame-accurate synchronization across players. Each player should be configured to output the same content across all four HDMI outputs, which is supported by the XC4055’s multi-output sync capabilities. Connect all players to the same wired local network to minimize latency and ensure reliable communication, and enable NTP (Network Time Protocol) on each device to keep their internal clocks aligned. Once the playlist is deployed, all players will start in sync and loop through the four videos continuously. To maintain long-term sync, consider scheduling periodic re-sync triggers or reboots, and ensure all players run the same firmware version. This setup will keep all six players and their outputs displaying synchronized video content seamlessly.
