scale=
scale-mode
Choose scaling mode ‘scale-mode’, where scale-mode is either ‘center’ (do not resize the image at all;
center it onscreen – the image may have a border or may not all show onscreen), ‘fit’ (enlarge or
reduce the image isometrically so that it fits as well as possible onscreen without altering its aspect
ratio), or ‘stretch’ (resize the picture to the screen’s dimensions; this may distort the image).
Example:
picture.jpg,scale=fit
Note: This setting is relevant only to still image formats. The default is ‘fit’. This is a good default.
However, some image sources may be close to but not exactly 4:3 aspect ratio. For these types of
images, ‘stretch’ may be a better choice as it will make the image occupy the entire screen area
without objectionable distortion. For images that are patently not 4:3 (e.g. portrait mode images),
‘center’ or ‘fit’ are better choices.
setdefault,
option1[=value1],[…],optionn[=valuen]]
Sets a new system-wide default setting for the option(s) specified until overridden by another
setdefault directive or the manual default settings in the menu system.
Example:
setdefault,pause=5
shuffledmusic
Applicable only to MP3 playlists. If this option is specified, the playlist will be shuffled and random
selections will be played continuously until another music line is encountered. This option gives you a
simple way to set up continuous, randomly varying background music for a slideshow without having
to script in music at specific points in the scriptfile. See “Playing Sounds on the DF-1710”, below, for
more detailed information on the use of this parameter.
Example:
myplaylist.lst,shuffledmusic
transition=
transition-type
Applicable only to still images; the new image will be transferred to the screen with the specified
transition effect. The default transition is “flip”. The transition option refers to the “incoming” image,
i.e. it will affect the transition to the image specified in the script line that the transition option
appears on.
Allowable values for
transition-type
are:
flip
The new image appears immediately with no transition effect.
dissolve
The new image is dissolved onto the screen one pixel at a time, scattered randomly.
blocks
The new image appears onscreen one small square at a time, scattered randomly.
crossfade
The new image is faded onto the screen, gradually replacing the old image.
Example:
picture.jpg,transition=crossfade
Note: The global transition effect can be set with the on-screen menu system. If you wish to be able to
control the transition effect for all still images in your slideshow using the menu system, do not specify
any transition effects in your script, because they would take precedence over the default.
zoom
Applicable only to movies. Enlarges the movie to fill the screen as nearly as possible. Even with “zoom”
specified, your movie may not completely fill the screen - to ensure full-screen movie playback, encode
your video at 320 x 240 pixels.
Example:
movie.mpg,zoom
