Regarding File Size:
There is no limitation to the size of the video file except for the size of the storage device (SD or USB flash drive).
On some video files, you may notice that the file will not play or may have a lag time due to the limitations of the
OIT's processor speed and memory. Therefore, we recommend a file resolution no greater than 640x480 pixels and
a bit rate that is less than 700 KB per second.
To play a video
When displaying an OIT screen that has a Media Player object on it, perform the following steps to begin playing
the video:
Set the value in the Parameter 1 register to select the correct video. Parameter 1 is used to select the File Index
number. The video files are organized and assigned a file index number according to alphabetical order. The first
file is assigned File Index 0, second file is File Index 1, etc.
Set the value in the Command Register to 1. The OIT reads the video files and starts playing the specified file.
The OIT will reset the Command Register to 0 and play the video until the end of the file. Note: during 'play' do
not change the values in the Command register or Parameter 1/Parameter 2 register as this may cause erratic
results.
To stop a video
To stop playing a video that is currently running on a Media Player object:
Set the value in the Command Register to 5. The OIT stops reading the video file and displaying the movie. The
OIT closes the video file.
After closing the video file, the OIT will reset the Command Register to 0. Note: during this sequence do not
change the values in the Command register or Parameter 1/Parameter 2 register as this may cause erratic results.
