Organizing Media Files

General Managers, Creators

The BrightSign Network features a folder directory system for keeping your media files organized. A folder for each user, along with a general-use Shared folder, is created by default. Media files that are added by uploading BrightAuthor presentations will be added to the Shared>Incoming folder.

  • To find a media file, enter all or part of the file name in the Search Files field and click the  button. The search will be carried out in all directories, no matter which folder is currently selected
  • To transfer a media file to another file folder, drag and drop the media file to the desired file folder in the directory. You can also transfer multiple selected files using the drag-and-drop method.
  • To create a new folder, first select the folder in which to create the new folder. Next, click Create a New Folder. Enter a name for the new folder and click Create.

  • Omitting tag valuesThe Tag Value allows you to create flexible inclusion/exclusion conditions for Tagged Playlists, but it is not required for user tags. If you create tags without values, you will still be able to create Tagged Playlists that include media files based on tag titles.Adding multiple tag values: You can enter multiple tag values as a comma-separated list without spaces (e.g. "DailyDeals,Promotions,Specials")
  • Autocompleting names/values: If a similar Name or Value is already in use with another player tag, a type-ahead dialog will appear listing names/values that match what you've typed so far.
  • Tagging capitalization: You cannot use similar tag names with variant capitalization (for example, if "City" is already in use as a tag name, a new tag named "city" will default to "City" instead). On the other hand, tag values with variant capitalization are allowed.
