a. The first line
1920 and 1080 define the width and height of the screen
resolution.
30 is the frame rate in fps (frames per second) i.e. number of
images to display per second.
b. The second and third lines have a same format.
The first 'p' defines play mode is immediately stop playing when
boot complete.
The number after 'p' defines repeat mode
- specifying 0 would make the par t loop indefinitely till the
device has boot complete.
- specifying 1 would make the part playback once.
The next number defines the delay time(ms). For example, if set
10, when all image files has been playback, system will delay 10ms.

part0 folder and after playing them in one loop, switching to contents
of part1 folder and playing them continuously till the device boot
