USB Autoplay


With the USB Autoplay feature, the screen automatically plays image/video files when the screen is powered on or when the USB drive is re-inserted into the screen.
To use this feature, the photo/video files need to be stored in certain directory location in the USB Drive and named in a certain way.

JPEG file are compressed using progressive and non progressive (baseline/standard) compression.
Progressive compression takes longer to load where the baseline/standard is much faster.

If you're not certain if your JPEG file is a baseline JPEG or progressive, it's easiest to edit the JPEG file using Microsoft Paint, then save it again which should save it as baseline JPEG
