Screen Saver panel
The screen saver activates when there is inactivity. Settings include:
Show Screen Saver: — The length of inactivity time (no stream decode, no commands received, and no user input) before the screen saver starts. Click After to enable the screen saver mode, then enter or select the number of seconds of inactivity before the screen saver activates.
Color: — The color of the screen saver. There are three choices:
•Black presents a black screen.
•Blue with OSD bug displays a blue background with the message: SMD101: No Source Input.
•Custom allows selection of a color using the
Mute Video and Sync — When the screen saver is active, sync is still sent to the connected display. For the display to enter its own power save mode (if equipped), sync must also stop. Check After and enter the number of seconds of inactivity before sync is discontinued, up to 500.
Boot play
Boot play is a feature that allows a source to be defined for automatic playback immediately after power to the SMD 101 is restored or cycled. The boot play source can be a clip, file, or playlist. Select a source (a stream URL from the network, or a playlist or filename for locally stored clips) to load on each power up cycle or reboot.
Failover
Defines the player response in the event stream data is interrupted. The time to wait after the stream is lost, the solid background color that plays in the event of stream loss, and an alternate source clip, image, playlist, or stream on the local drive can be selected.
Display Solid Color — The length of time after a stream loss before a solid color screen is output to the connected display. Click the After checkbox to activate the failover mode. Select the time after the stream loss is detected before the solid screen is output.
Color — The color of the failover output. There are three choices:
•Black presents a black screen.
•Blue with OSD bug displays a blue background with the message: SMD101: No Source Input.
•Custom allows selection of a color from the
Source from Path Below: — Select a clip or image to display upon entering failover mode. The clip or image must be on the local storage media.
NOTE: Failover images or clips should always be located on local storage. This provides a more reliable source in the event of network failure or the loss or relocation of the original source.
