Working With Dynamo Video; Setting Up A Dynamo Video Image - AMX TPDESIGN4 V2.5 Instruction Manual

Working With Dynamo Video

Dynamo is an extension of the Dynamic Images feature of AMX G4 devices.
With the growing popularity of Motion JPEG (or M-JPEG), streaming being adopted by leading
manufacturers of video equipment, DynaMo now enables the use of this technology in AMX
systems.
The setup process is essentially identical to that for setting up other Dynamic Images. It includes
three easy steps:
1. Create a Dynamic Image in TPDesign4 project.
2. Create a General button the Dynamic Image will be displayed on.
3. Select the Dynamic Image in the button's Bitmap properties.

Setting Up a DynaMo Video Image

1. In TPDesign4 software, create a new project (or open an existing project in which you would
like to add DynaMo video). Open Resource Manager, go to the Dynamic Images tab, and click
on New to create a new Dynamic Image (FIG. 17):

Refresh Rate: Use the up/down arrows to adjust the number of seconds between
refreshes in which the resource is downloaded again. Refreshing resources will cause the
button displaying that resource to refresh as well. The default value is 0, which means
that the resource is only downloaded once.
Refresh only at Panel Startup: This option is only available if the Refresh Rate is set to
zero, and causes the dynamic image to refresh only upon restart of the panel, as opposed
to upon each visit to the page (as is the default).
