THE SETTINGS.XML FILE

The settings.xml is constructed as a typical XML file:

The beginning of the settings.xml file begins with an XML declaration:

<?xml version=”1.0” encoding=”UTF-8” ?>

The XML declaration is followed by a <settings> start-tag. The end of the file contains a </settings> end-tag. All other tags and attributes are contained within these two tags, creating the following structure:

<?xml version=”1.0” encoding=”UTF-8” ?> <settings>

</settings>

An XML attribute is a markup containing both a name and a value, which can be edited to change the behavior of the Hi-Def Digital Signage Media Player. When modifying the settings.xml file, only the Attribute Value should be changed-- never change the Attribute Name. An example of a XML attribute would be:

<output value=”NTSC1080P” />

Attribute Attribute

NameValue

WARNING: Do not modify the Attribute Name. Changing the Attribute Name will result in errors or undesirable results.

The Attribute Value must always be surrounded by double quotes. The beginning of an XML Attribute must be prefixed with a less-than symbol (< ) and must end with a forward slash ( / ) followed by a greater-than symbol ( >).

The next section provides a summary of each section of the settings.xml file and the attributes.
