Manual SD Card Formatting
The easiest way to begin using the MP70 is to use the free CE labs QuickSign
Pro 700 software and that is highly recommended. If you wish to set the player
up manually, that is possible as well, but will require some configuration. An
example of playing three video files in a loop is shown below.
1. Connect the MP70 to a HD monitor.
2. Place a SD card in the PC that contains the content you wish to play.
3. Create the following folders on the SD card.
a. Html/
b. Video/
c. Music/
d. Picture/
e. Playlist/
f. MP7XXConfig/
4. Copy your videos to the Video folder.
5. Create the following file:
[Control]
PlaylistVersion=2.0
[List]
ENTRY1 = VIDEO, Video_File_1
ENTRY2 = VIDEO, Video_File_2
ENTRY3 = VIDEO, Video_File_3
ENTRY4 = LOOP
Save this file as text file (let’s call it “PL1”) but without the .txt suffix in
the Playlist folder. The LOOP command will cause the files to repeat.
The Video_File_X must match the file names of your videos exactly
(no spaces and capitalization matters).
6. Create another file:
StartUpItem, Playlist, PL1
Save this file as a text file with the name “mp7xx.conf” (no .txt suffix)
in the MP7XXConfig folder. This will cause the PL1 playlist to start
automatically.
7. Remove the SD from the PC and insert into the MP70. The video files should
begin to play.
This is an exacting manual process that is extremely easy when done with the
QuickSign Pro 700 software. It is available as a free download at:
