hosted on a third-party server or the BrightSign Network (using the Live Media feature).
1. Click the Other tab below Media Library.
2. Drag the Media RSS Feed icon to the playlist area.
a. Select a Data Feed from the dropdown list. If you are using the Media RSS Feed in an Audio Only or
Enhanced Audio zone, ensure that the MRSS feed or Dynamic Playlist will contain audio files only.

c. Click OK.
Note: BrightAuthor does not prevent you from inputting an RSS Data Feed into an MRSS state (or vice versa).
However, the presentation will fail to display any content if it is published in this state.
HTML5
You can use the BrightSign 4Kx42, XDx32, XDx32, and HDx22 models to display HTML web pages, including video,
image, text, and JavaScript elements. For a full explanation of how to create and publish HTML content for BrightSign
players, please see the
HTML5 Best Practices guide.
