SETTINGS.XML SUMMARY

Notes: The syncMedia attribute enables / disables the syncing of media from the server to the Media Player. The two examples below illustrate the difference between disabling and enabling the syncMedia attribute. Note that when the syncMedia attribute is enabled, the Media player will receive the new content and erase the current content from the Media Player.

<syncMedia value=”disable”>

The syncSchedule and syncPlaylist attributes function in the same manner as the syncMedia attribute. If either of these attributes are enabled, then the new Schedule file and/or Playlist(s) will be updated from the server to the Media Player. The current schedule file and playlist(s) will be replaced with the new files.

WARNING: It is not recommended that you change the schedule

filename. The schedule file is referenced within the settings.xml file. If the schedule filename is changed, then the settings.xml file must be modified, manually, to reflect the new schedule filename.

The syncSchedule does not automatically update the settings.xml file with a new schedule filename.
