MagicHD User Manual
Version 1.6.5.0
2.8 MagicHD Window
MagicHD is launched from within MagicQ PC from the “Media Player” menu. It can also be closed
from here, or by closing its window.
The MagicHD window can be positioned and sized just like any other application window. To go
full screen with no borders (i.e. ready for output to a projector), select the window and press
F11
,
or select “Full Screen” from the Media Player menu.
MagicQ will remember the position and size of the window for when you next open it.
2.9 Adding Media
Chose a folder number that is either not in use, or will not clash with existing content. e.g. 13.
Chose file numbers that will not clash with existing content (unless you want to overwrite). e.g. 15-
18.
Create a numbered folder away from MagicQ PC/convert. e.g.
temp
└─
013
Place your files in this folder. e.g.
temp
└─ 013
├─
apple.mov
├─
banana.avi
└─
orange.mp4
Add your chosen file numbers to the filenames. e.g.
temp
└─ 013
├─
015_
apple.mov
├─
016_
banana.avi
└─
017_
orange.mp4
Copy the finished folder(s) to MagicQ PC/convert
…/MagicQ PC
└─ convert
└─ 013
├─
015_apple.mov
├─
016_banana.avi
└─ 017_orange.mp4
Wait for conversion to take place. Progress is reported on the HUD, and in the input display
window (bottom right) in MagicQ PC.
You can prepare media under MagicQ PC/convert, but every time you edit a file it will trigger the
conversion process, resulting in errors if the filenames aren't in the correct format.
