3.3 Powering On
Install the Compact Flash card, however to reduce the risk of errors it is advised to
have the power off when removing or installing a Compact Flash card.
Connect the provided external AC power supply unit.
Power on the unit using the on/off switch, the power LED should come on.
See the following section for Power On options.
3.4 Autoplay / Manual Playback at power startup
The DV Signage VideoFlyer supports AutoPlay or manual playback modes at power startup
AutoPlay
: This is the default mode for the unit. This means that upon power-on video will start
playing in accordance with a playlist (if DV Studio was used to transfer the media files to the
Compact Flash card) or in alpha-numeric order (if the media files were simply copied to the
Compact Flash card).
Manual Playback
: Only available as a setting in DV Studio. In Manual Playback mode, after
power up press any button and the first track in the Playlist set in DV Studio will play.
3.5 Playback modes
Playlist mode, i.e. using DV Studio:
When operating in playlist mode, both project file (*.prj) and playlist file (*.pll) must be
present on the Compact Flash card. These are used to control the sequence for all
video tracks. If playback does not run as expected please check that these files are
present on the Compact Flash card.
The project and playlist file are created using DV Studio
software. Using this software,
you can set simple sequences or complex sequences including “jump track“ or “next
track” actions. The software can also program buttons with different functions like
“play”, “stop”, “pause”, “mute”, “previous”, “next” and “volume”.
