roSyncManagerEvent
These events are generated on slave units in response to
roSyncManager.Synchronize()
calls from the master unit. The
roSyncManager on each slave unit will handle message duplicates, so the script will receive the sync message only once
during normal operations.
If the slave unit is already booted up, then the event will arrive from the first network event generated by
roSyncManager.Synchronzie(). On the other hand, if the slave unit is booted up while the master is in the middle of
playing a video file or displaying an image file, then one of the message resends (generated at one second intervals by
the master unit) will trigger the event. The script passes on the data from the event to the
video player or the
command of the image player, which will then determine how far forward in the file it
needs to seek.
