||
<p>The <strong>Select Media</strong> form will open to provide further configuration options for the Image:</p>

|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>Select which <strong>Displays</strong> this Image will be shown on.</p>
|
||
</li>

<p><em><strong>What are Schedule Loops?</strong></em></p>
|
||
<p>A Schedule Loop is how media content will play when in schedules with other media content. For example, if you have scheduled 2 media items each with a 10 second duration to be shown at the same time for 1 hour, both items will play for their 10 second durations in fair rotation for the scheduled time.</p>
|
||
<p><em><strong>What file extensions are supported on upload?</strong></em></p>
|
||
<p>Valid file extensions: jpg,jpeg,png,bmp,gif,webp.</p>
|
||
<p><em><strong>Can I upload an animated gif?</strong></em></p>
|
||
<p>Animated gif’s are not supported.</p>
