Supported media types
BrightSign supports the following media types:
MPEG-2 video files (also called VOB or MPG files) These are the same types of files that are
found on DVDs. You can create MPEG-2 video files using any video editing software, such as
Pinnacle Studio or iMovie. These video files should meet the following parameters:
• Video size up to 1080i (1920x1080 interlaced) on the HD2000 or D1 (720 x 480) on the HD600.
• Bit rate up to 25Mbps (HD200) or 9Mbps (HD600).
• Scale. During playback video is scaled in real time to the output resolution (which can be
much higher definition). The files must contain program streams (transport streams are not
supported).
• Audio (HD600 only) audio track with 48K sampling rate.
