Creating A Multiple Zone Presentation - BrightSign HD Series Quick Start Manual

Creating a multiple zone presentation

With BrightSign zones you can divide your display's screen into windows and play different types of content in each
window, including video, audio, images, ticker feeds (RSS or text), or the date and time. You can also control transitions
between media files, the background color, background image, font, text color, text alignment, and text orientation.
Below are a few examples of BrightSign zone templates:
