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.
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.
