Use the Link Zones event, combined with the Link Zones command, when you require close, millisecond-level synchronization of content between zones on the same player.
The Link Zones event supports video and image states only; use the Zone Message event to synchronize other states. The Link Zones event provides better synchronization times than the Zone Message event because it pre-loads the next image/video file before displaying it.
Link Zones events cannot be used in the same presentation as Synchronize events; to synchronize zones in a multi-screen presentation, use the Zone Message event.
In the Specify link keyword field, enter the message that is sent by the corresponding Link Zones command.
