We strongly recommend stating the maximum character limit for item titles, item descriptions, and custom data fields in the default text. This will help the end user create dynamic text that does not get cut off when it is displayed in the template.

Building Templates for HD/LS Players

HDx24, LS424, HDx23, HDx22LS423, and LS423 HDx22 players support BrightPlates presentations, but these models have a single video decoder (rather than the two video decoders offered by the XD, XT, and 4K models). This leads to several limitations that you need to consider when creating a BrightPlates template:

  • The template can either have one video <div> tag or a set of MRSS <div> tags.
  • By default, a video decoder is used to display the background image (this ensures it is always placed behind other content); however, on single-decoder models, there will be no decoders left to display MRSS content. To work around this limitation, you will need to do the following:
    • Add the background-color:transparent property to the <div> tag for the playlist/MRSS block.
    • Ensure the background image is a .png with an alpha channel for transparency, and add a transparent window that is the same size and location of the playlist/MRSS block.
