Display Setup Dialog Box
The Display Setup dialog box opens in the following two cases while a playlist is being edited.
•When [Default Display Setup] (a button in the Edit Playlist window) is clicked. This enables you to specify the default display size and position of video events, and the default position of text events.
•When a video or text event is right-clicked, then [Display Setup] is clicked on the menu.
This enables you to specify the size (video only) and position of that video or text.
Note
The unit used in this dialog box is pixels, and the origin is the upperleft corner of the screen. You are not allowed to have more than one user setting whose value is the same.
If you selected the "over-scan" display type upon group setting, the system adjusts the pre-defined positions, such as "Upperleft" and "Lower," so that the video and text can be correctly displayed on over-scan displays. The system also indicates the area that is visible with over-scan displays on the screen in this dialog box.
Note that if you use both over-scan and under-scan displays in a single network player group, video and text may not displayed at the expected position on some of the displays.
