Allows you to select random or predetermined playback order. If you select “Normal Mode”, the media in the
slideshow will be played in the order specified by its script file. If “Shuffle mode” is selected the image order
will be shuffled each time a slideshow is selected and also each time the end of the script file is reached. The
script file itself is unchanged, the shuffling takes place on a copy of the file in memory. Please note:
•
All items in a script file are shuffled, including directives, MP3 playlists, etc., so if you have a script with
order-dependent features such as synchronized sound effects you may get undesired results.
•
Any nested scripts referenced by the main script will also have their playback order shuffled.
•
The forward and back arrows will go to the next and previous items, respectively, except when you are
"wrapping" around the end of the scriptfile (see below).
Rotation Angle
Sets image rotation to 0, 90, 180, or 270 degrees, clockwise. Set the rotation angle to 270 degrees if your DF-
1710 is mounted in portrait mode. This setting can also be used to compensate for camera orientation if all of
your pictures were taken with the same camera rotation. If only some images need to be rotated, use the
rotation paramater on selected images in a script file, or pre-rotate those images using an image editing
program prior to putting them on the Digi-Frame.
Play WAV Comments
Enables or disables automatic audio comments for pictures. If this feature is enabled and a file xxx.WAV exists
in the same directory, corresponding to the image file xxx.jpg, then the WAV file will be played immediately
after the jpeg is loaded. See the WAV audio section of the “Playing Media on the DF-1710” section of this
manual for more details.
Slideshow Log
When the Slideshow Log feature is turned on the DF-1710 will generate a text file listing each media item
played and a time/date stamp of when it was played. The log file is generated in the frame’s root directory and
called “log.out”. The log will hold up to 10,000 entries; when the log exceeds 10,000 entries the oldest entries
will be deleted to make room for new ones. The log file can be viewed on-screen by selecting it, pressing the
“D” button, and selecting “View text file” from the contextual menu. The file can be scrolled by using the
remote control’s arrow keys to the scrollbar controls at the right-hand side of the window.
Set/Clear Lockout Password
This option prevents unauthorized users from modifying any of the frame settings via the menu system. When
accessed for the first time, the user is prompted to enter his/her desired locking password. Entering a
password enables menu lockout. While lockout mode is enabled, attempting to exit a running slideshow by
pressing D for menus, or by inserting a CD-ROM, will result in a prompt for the current lockout password. The
user must enter the correct password using the onscreen keyboard. If an incorrect password is entered, the
slideshow begins again. If a CD was inserted, it is ejected.
On a locked frame, entering the Main Menu after entering the password and selecting the "Set/Clear Lockout
Password" item will result in the message "Password has been cleared. Press any button to continue." The
password feature is now disabled.
The lockout feature defaults to disabled (i.e. not protected).
