Operation

Before You Begin:

PlaybackPro requires Mac OSX 10.4 (Tiger), or OSX 10.5 (Leopard). 3GB of RAM is
required.

PlaybackPro scales to any hardware, but may be limited by the computer’s processor speed,
disk bandwidth and graphics power.

PlaybackPro is designed to run on a system with two outputs (or a laptop with an external
output). The primary screen (the one with menus) is for the interface. The secondary output
(which can be reordered under Displays, in the Hardware Section of System Preferences) is
for playback.

PlaybackPro automatically adjusts to the aspect ratio of the external display. To manually
change the output resolution (or aspect ratio if no external display is present), click Setup in
the top right corner of the Program Section.

When a Show File is opened, the application looks for the USB Enabler Key. If not found, a
dialog box will be displayed. If you have an Enabler Key, insert it and click Okay. If you
do not have a key, click Run As Demo. Demo mode is fully-functional, except for a
watermark that is displayed on the output. Demo mode is generally used for setting up a
show off-line, or learning the application.
