4.6-BrightWall Presentations

The BrightWallâ„¢ feature allows you to easily create, publish, and edit video-wall deployments. Video walls are created by synchronizing the playback of a number of players, each connected to a different screen on the wall, over a local network connection. Simple looping video playlists are the only presentation type supported by BrightWall. Images and interactive playlists are not supported: Use this FAQ to compare the capabilities of different synchronization options.

The process of publishing BrightWall presentations differs from publishing standard presentations. See the Publishing a BrightWall Presentation page for more information. 

Video Requirements

For best results, we recommend using the .mp4 or .mov container for video files that make up a BrightWall presentation. Transport Stream (.ts) files are also supported, but they must begin with a presentation timestamp (PTS) offset of zero. Program Stream (MPEG-PS) files are not supported.

Note

It is possible to create a seamlessly looping video wall if the video files are formatted appropriately. See the Seamless Looping FAQ for more details.

Network Requirements

All players that are part of a BrightWall must be connected to the same network via Ethernet cable. BrightWall uses the PTPv2 network protocol, which requires multicast support on the network.Â
