Overview
Certain BrightSign device configuration options require modification to the autorun.brs file found on devices provisioned with Intuiface Player.
To place this updated file on each device running Player, you must either
- manually overwrite the existing autorun.brs file on each device's SD card
OR - remotely replace the existing autorun.brs file using BA Connected / BSN Cloud tools
NOTE: Any manual changes to the autorun.brs file will be removed:
- if Player is updated through the Share and Deploy console
- if the BrightSign unit is reprovisioned using BSN.Cloud.
The changes to the autorun.brs must be re-applied after manually updating Player.
Be sure to restart each BrightSign device for your changes to take effect.
Configuration Options
Portrait or reversed landscape screen orientation
The default orientation for BrightSign devices is landscape.
To specify a different orientation, uncomment line 63 and choose between one of the following values:
-
- "rot90": The screen is rotated to portrait orientation at 90 degrees (clockwise).
- "rot180" The screen is rotated upside down in landscape
- "rot270": The screen is rotated to portrait orientation at 270 degrees (counter-clockwise).
View mouse cursor
Enable Cursor - enables display of Mouse cursor (disabled by default): to enable cursor uncomment lines 31 to 34
The mouse cursor is set to invisible when installing Intuiface Player. This is done to ensure the cursor is not visible when running an Intuiface experience. However, if you want to be able to use the mouse and thus need to see the cursor, uncomment line 57 of the autorun.brs configuration file. Your configuration file should be as follows:
4K resolution
By default, the resolution output is set to FullHD (1920x1080 pixels). This can be changed by editing the 'Video Mode' and 'TouchScreen Configuration' sections of the autorun.brs to specify a 4k resolution.
Add the following:
- In the 'Video Mode' section:
videomode.Setmode("3840x2160x60p:fullres") - In the 'TouchScreen Configuration' section:
touchScreen.SetResolution(3840, 2160)
Your autorun.brs should look like the image below:
Multi-screen setup
To configure a multi-screen setup, you must edit the video parameters in the "Video Mode" section of the brs file.
By default, Player is configured to run on a single screen as follows:
Here are a couple of examples for different multi-screen video modes:
-
2x2 Full HD Landscape oriented screen configuration
- 1x4 Full HD Portrait oriented screen configuration
Play Last experience
- Adding the following command, will force Player to open the last playing experience before it restarted. This behavior can be bypassed using a long-press in the black zone at the bottom of Player's splash screen.
At the end of the "url:" (line 135 in the example below) add the following configuration option:
The autorun.brs file should look like the one below:
