Introduction

This document explains how to make a Philips slideshow file with background audio.

Be aware that the content of this document is addressing technical or software skilled users. To start the slideshow open the slideshow file in the Multimedia browser of your TV.

1.Press the MENU/BROWSE key on the remote control after having inserted a USB device and switched on the TV.

2.Go to where you stored the slideshow file (.alb) on your portable memory.

3.Select the slideshow file and press the OK key to start the slide show.

4.To stop a slide show, press the ‡ key.

General Rules

-The slideshow will use plain ASCII XML syntax to allow the creation and editing of the slideshow files using simple tools.

-All references to network content must be based on the global address of the content.

-Content on a Portable Memory (PM) doesn't have a global address; as a result content from a PM can never be referenced from a slideshow not stored on the PM itself.

-To maintain portability, a slideshow stored on a PM should ONLY reference content on the same PM. Referencing global addresses can result in inconsistencies if the PM is used on a non- networked CE device. The latter is however not forbidden, it is only a recommendation.

-It is preferable that URL’s referencing PM content are based on a relative path starting from the directory where the slideshow is stored. This path includes the device or drive name of the PM. An absolute path to content will also be supported.

-relative path: pictures\test1.jpg, tamper.jpg, ..\new\bird.jpg, …

-absolute path: USB1:\pictures1\foo_bar.jpg, C:\f1.jpg, \organization.jpg, …

General Format

The format and syntax below will be used to create the slideshow file (simple ascii text) with the extension .alb (.ALB). Examples: slshow1.alb, summer_holiday_2004.ALB, test.alb, …

The following syntax should be used to create the text file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-885h9-1" ?> <philips-slideshow version="1.0" >

<title>Title of the slideshow</title> <audio>audio_url</audio> <slide-duration>30</slide-duration> <slides>

<slide>slide_1_url</slide> <slide>slide_2_url</slide> <slide>slide_3_url</slide> <slide>slide_4_url</slide> <slide>slide_5_url</slide> <slide>slide_6_url</slide>

...

<slide>slide_N-1_url</slide> <slide>slide_N_url</slide>

</slides> </philips-slideshow>
