Live Video

This page / section pertains to BrightAuthor Classic, our legacy app. BrightSign Author is our latest app for managing content and players.
Development of BrightAuthor Classic has largely ceased and the app will eventually be deprecated and replaced with BrightSign Author.
The XT1143, 4K1142, XD1132, and XD1230 models support live-video playback from another source via the HDMI® Input port. To add a Live Video state, select a Video or Images or Video Only zone, click the Other tab, and drag the Live Video icon to the playlist area.
- Volume: Specify the volume of the video input (between 0 and 100).
- Time on screen: Specify the amount of time the video input is displayed on screen.
- Overscan: Check this box to display the video input beyond the edges of the zone. Use this option if the source video signal is using an overscan setting.
We do not recommend displaying a Live Video state at the same time as an RF InRF In state (in two different video zones, for example).
