The desired autorun.brs or autorun.zip file is uploaded to an externally accessible URL. The autorun.zip file includes the essentials (autozip.brs and autorun.brs) and, if desired, the presentation file and associated content files. The URL path to the autorun.brs or autorun.zip file is designated as the App URL (an example App URL is available at https://www.brightsign.biz/examples/autorun.zip).
The player is configured with the App URL. There are several ways to do this:
An App URL can be applied directly to a player or group of players from the Provision screen, accessible from the Admin menu of the Control Cloud interface. You will be shown one way to do this in the next section.
Create an App URL Setup using the Control Cloud interface (more info about creating Setups can be found here).
The Setup contains info about the App URL.
The Setup can be remotely applied to a player or group of internet-connected players.
Players download the autorun.brs or autorun.zip file from the App URL specified in the Setup.
Player(s) configured for an App URL will, upon booting, go to the App URL and download the autorun.brs or autorun.zip file from the specified App URL. If the file is an autorun.zip file containing an autozip.brs file, the player will unzip that file. The player will then reboot, and then run the autorun.brs file.
