Showing Content Files That Are Stored on the SD Card

You can upload supported file types to the SD card in your DMP, then show them on the attached
DMP display.
Caution If you upload files to the /tmp/ftproot subdirectory instead of using /tmp/ftproot/usb_1, performance
might be degraded temporarily. To restore your DMP to its normal operating condition, unplug it, wait
15 seconds, then plug it in again. (This method deletes the files that you uploaded.)
Note The total amount of available space for local file storage on the SD memory card is:
• For a DMP 4300G — 1 GB.
• For a DMP 4305G — 2 GB.
If you will use DMM-DSM to show an asset in a presentation, the filesize limit is:
• For a DMP 4300G — 1.9 GB.
• For a DMP 4305G — 3.8 GB.
For purposes of stage-one failover, the combined size of all files cannot exceed:
• For a DMP 4300G — 900 MB.
• For a DMP 4305G — 1.75 GB.
