• The area set under the [Display Area] tab will be the display area (except when a program is specified).
• “Smooth contents change” check box
Check this check box to switch between contents smoothly by preparing the playback of the next
content before the end of the current content. Also check this check box when it is necessary to
synchronize the content display between frames.
Clicking [Preload Setting] allows you to set the content that is to be read in advance.
• Making the switching of contents smooth will
increase the load on the CPU and the memory use
amount. It is recommended that tests be conducted
by actually displaying programs before operation.
• When performing advanced reading of a content
that can be played with Windows Media Player,
the video accelerator is disabled. Check that your
PC has enough performance to display contents
without the video accelerator.

Explorer is read in advance, Flash contents and
banners embedded in the content may be started
from the middle.
• “Set limit of print screen area” check box
When you are outputting multiple screens on a target PC,

Check this box to capture just a part of the screen output.
Click [Area Setting] and define the area you want to
capture.
• “Don’t move focus while program viewer starts” check box
This box is usually left unchecked.
Check this box if you do not want the Program Viewer focus to move when you launch the Program
Viewer.
• “Hide task bar while showing” check box
When this check box is checked, the task bar is hidden when Program Viewer is launched and it is
re-displayed when Program Viewer is closed.

saved.
The initial default values are:
• My Contents folder: C:\Program Files\SHARP\SHARP Digital Signage Software\My Contents\
