Log File Reporting

Log Format

Run Logs

The available output formats for a Firefly run log file are either

.CSV or .XML

Sample from a .CSV format run log:

12-07-02 20:30:07,1,05saturn.mpg,3_ser220.BMP,1,00:01:01,100

Sample from a .XML format run log:

<mpeg datetime=”12-07-02 20:32:57” chan=”1” filename=”05saturn.mpg” overlay=”3_ser220.BMP” loop=”1” duration=”00:01:01” percent=”100” />

Diagnostic Logs

The format of the diagnostic log is in a simple “time - event” per line format.

DTDs (Document Type Definition)

DTDs can be used to import data from a log file into a database.

Log Default Playlist

You have the option to designate whether or not the default playlist playback is included in the playback log file data. Choosing “Yes” includes the default playlist in the playback data. Conversely, choosing “No” excludes the default playlist from the log file data.

Maximum Log File Sizes

You have the option to set a value (in megabytes) for the maximum size a log file is able to reach. The default value is 10 MB. You may want to keep this value relatively small if you wish to maintain a large amount of free space for videos and graphic overlays.
