To configure a BrightWall presentation, navigate to File > BrightWall™ Properties.

Main

  • Type: Choose whether the BrightWall presentation is Regular or Stretched:
    • Regular: Each panel of the BrightWall presentation is made up of a different video file. To create a single video surface out of multiple screens, video assets will need to be tailored for the video wall using the source application (e.g. Adobe After Effects): You will need to split the videos into their respective screens and adjust for bezel width before adding the assets to BrightAuthor.
    • Stretched: The video wall is made up of a single video. BrightAuthor automatically splits the video among the screens. This option allows you to display video files, as well as Streaming Video, Live Video, and RF Input.
  • View mode: Choose the view mode of the presentation. In Regular presentations, this option applies to videos on individual screens, similar to the View Mode option found in the Zone Properties menu. In Stretched presentations, this option applies to the entire wall. The following descriptions apply to Stretched presentations only:
    • Scale to Fill: The video will be stretched over all screens in the video wall. If the aspect ratio of the video wall does not match the ratio of the video content, the video will likely appear stretched or distorted.
    • Letterboxed and Centered: The video will not be stretched. Instead, it will appear at the center of the video wall at its original resolution, which may cover one or multiple screens. Areas of the video wall that are not filled by the video will display the background color of the presentation.
    • Fill Screen and Centered: The video will be stretched to fit the height or width of the video wall (whichever length is lesser). If the aspect ratio of the video wall does not match the ratio of the video content, the video will be cropped.
  • Display screen layout information when presentation starts: Check this box to have screens in the BrightWall display positioning information for a few moments when the presentation starts scheduled playback. If this box is not checked, the presentation will begin immediately without displaying positioning information.
