Playlist Commands
Here is the list of commands that can appear in a playlist:
.bmp, .mp3, .mpg, .vob, .png (HD2000 only)
Any line that is a file name that ends in one of these extensions is played. Names may
contain spaces.
.bsp
You can call another playlist from within a playlist putting the playlist filename on a line
by itself. For example: mysubplaylist.bsp. This “sub playlist” will complete one loop
and then return control to the main playlist.
debug
Turns on debug information that appears on the console (serial port)
rem <comment>
Any line starting with rem is ignored. Rem is short for “remark”
print <line to print to console>
Prints a line to the console. This is useful for debugging.
audiomode # (default is 1 )
Sets the Audio Mode. BrightSign has 5.1 audio decode and is controlled via the
audiomode. If your audio source is a video file, you can use the "audiomode"
commands:
• audiomode 0 5.1 surround sound decode (via USB or all six analog outs)
• audiomode 1 5.1 is mixed down to stereo
• audiomode 2 mute audio
audiooutput # (default is 0 )
BrightSign has 5 different audio outputs. If none are selected the default is analog audio
1 in stereo. Of the 5 outputs, there are five “audiooutput” modes. The mode is set with
the "audiooutput" command. It can have one of these values:
• 0 - Analog audio
• 1 - USB audio
• 2 - SPDIF audio, stereo PCM
• 3 - SPDIF audio, raw AC3
• 4 - analog audio with SPDIF mirroring raw AC3
