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 publish to the SD cards of all the BrightWall players 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.

Once you’ve created a BrightWall Group, return to the Publish > BrightSign Network tab and click  to refresh the dropdown list.
