THE SETTINGS.XML FILE
The settings.xml is constructed as a typical XML le:
The beginning of the settings.xml le begins with an XML declaration:
<?xmlversion=”1.0”encoding=”UTF-8”?>
The XML declaration is followed by a <settings> start-tag. The end of the le
contains a </settings> end-tag. All other tags and attributes are contained
within these two tags, creating the following structure:
<?xmlversion=”1.0”encoding=”UTF-8”?>
<settings>
...
...
...
</settings>
An XML attribute is a markup containing both a name and a value, which can be
edited to change the behavior of the Hi-Def Digital Signage Media Player. When
modifying the settings.xml le, only the Attribute Value should be changed--
never change the Attribute Name. An example of a XML attribute would be:
<outputvalue=”NTSC1080P”/>
The Attribute Value must always be surrounded by double quotes. The beginning
of an XML Attribute must be prexed with a less-than symbol (<) and must end
with a forward slash (/) followed by a greater-than symbol (>).
The next section provides a summary of each section of the settings.xml le
and the attributes.
