10. MEDIA FILE PLAYBACK
As described in the First Steps chapter, the simplest way of playing back media files with the UHD
Player in Standalone Mode is as follows:
•
Save your video, audio and image files to the root folder of the supplied SD Card or any other
USB data carrier (e.g. SD:/ or USB:/).
•
P lug the data carrier into the corresponding port on the player’s front panel .
The player is set to Play Mode “Repeat All” by default and will play your media files successively in
alphanumeric order. All image files will be displayed for 5 seconds, and the volume for audio
playback is set to 50%.
There are several possibilities for a more customized playback of your media files. Please see the
following sections for further information:
•
Play Mode – How the file playback is handled without a playlist on the data carrier
•
Default Display Time – How to define a general display time for image files
•
Volume – How to define a general volume for media files containing audio
•
Playlist – How to take advantage of the various playback possibilities and individual settings
for each media file
•
HDMI Input – How to display an external video/audio source via the HMDI Input port
•
Synchronized Playback – How to sync several players
UHD Players can play video contents in Loop Mode, which means that there is no gap when the
playback loops from the last to the first video frame. Of course, this is also possible when multiple
players are operating in Network Synchronization Mode.
PLEASE NOTE:
The SD Card (or the USB data carrier) must remain installed in the player during playback and
networking operations. The player cannot play presentations or receive content over the network
without a storage device connected because it has no internal storage.
10.1. PLAY MODE
The default Play M ode “Repeat All” will play your media files successively in alphanumeric order,
whereby media files with uppercase file names will be processed before media files with lowercase
file names. After the last item, the playback will restart again from the first item.
See here for an example of how the alphanumeric playback order works, with the following files
saved on the data carrier:
•
01_video.mp4
•
02_video.mp4
•
House_inside.jpg
•
House_outside.jpg
•
handshake.mp4
When working with triggers from external devices, like buttons (via GPIO Remote In) or
RS232/UDP/Avio Control, you may want to use a d
ifferent play mode. Either “ Repeat Default“ or
“Repeat Selected“ can be chosen.
