Chapter 8 – Publishing Presentations

Publishing a BrightWall™ Presentation

To publish a

BrightWall

presentation, navigate to the Publish tab, choose your desired publishing option, and select

BrightWall Presentations in the top left.

Scheduling BrightWall presentations requires the same steps as scheduling standard presentations. Note that BrightWall
presentations and standard presentations cannot be placed on the same schedule.

Local Storage
Once you have finished scheduling your BrightWall presentation(s), click the

Publish button to bring up the Publish

BrightWall window:

Publish each screen in a subfolder of a parent folder: The project and media files for each screen will be
published in separate subfolders of the specified parent folder. Use this option if you don’t want to immediately
publish to the SD cards of all the players in the video wall while in BrightAuthor. This option is also useful if you’d
like the entire BrightWall presentation contained in a package that can be easily transported between directories,
computers, etc.

Publish each screen individually: You will be given a separate prompt for publishing the project files of each
screen. Use this option if you want to immediately set up the SD cards for players in the video wall.

BrightSign Network
Select a BSN BrightWall Group using the dropdown menu under

Select BrightWall Group to Schedule. The BrightWall

configuration file assigned to the group determines which presentations are available in the

BrightWall Presentations

list: A BrightWall presentation will not appear in this list if it uses a different configuration file from the group.

If you haven’t created a BrightWall Group yet, navigate to the

Manage > Status tab to create one. Once you’ve created a

BrightWall Group, return to the

Publish > BrightSign Network tab and click the button to Refresh the dropdown list. See

the

Creating a BrightWall on the BrightSign Network

section for a complete outline of the BSN BrightWall process.


Once you’ve selected a BrightWall Group, click

Publish Schedule to assign the schedule to the BrightWall Group.
