Kiosk Playmodes

Several Kiosk Modes are available for controlled playback of files.

+

180 - Kiosk Mode non-looping, pause on last frame of last file - this is the same as the range of 180-184 in MBOX
v3.3.

+

181 - Kiosk Mode non-looping, loop last file - this mode will loop the last file in the folder using the layer's
currently selected crossfade type and time.

+

182

- Kiosk Mode non-looping, fade out last file - this mode will fade the last file to transparent using the layer's

current crossfade time.

+

185-189 - Kiosk Mode looping - This playmode will play through all the files in a folder in sequential order, looping
back to the first file when it reaches the end of the last file.

+

190-199 - SMPTE Kiosk mode - This playmode will play timecode-linked files in a folder, triggering playback of
any new file (from that folder) when timecode reaches that file’s starting point.

Guidelines:

+

The two non-SMPTE Kiosk modes use the layer’s current crossfade type and time when switching from one piece
of content to the next. These two modes require the first desired piece of content in the folder to be selected.

+

The SMPTE Kiosk mode requires any valid SMPTE-linked piece of content in the folder to be selected; this should
typically be the first piece of content desired. Folders for use with SMPTE Kiosk mode should not include any
non-SMPTE linked content. It is also a good idea to make the first and last frame of any SMPTE-linked content
black to avoid an undesirable paused frame as the layer waits for the appropriate SMPTE to initiate playback.
