It is proposed to choose one of three variants of configuration:

         2. Standard – includes the basic configuration mode, hides desktop icons, enables auto-hide taskbar in desktop mode function, automates system login.
         3. Advanced – includes both previous modes, disables OS loading animation and disables the ability to change session (switch accounts Win + “L” hotkeys).

After performing the autoconfiguration, it is recommended to reboot the device for the changes to take effect. It is also possible to reset all changes made by autoconfiguration. Click “Disable” button to do this.

     2. Autostart button. This function can be used to make the player start broadcasting stories when you turn it on. Also, it is possible to delay launch of playback by 5, 15, 30 or an arbitrary (not more than 600) number of seconds.
     3. Kiosk mode switch. Kiosk mode is designed to block unauthorized attempts to exit the program, system windows, menus and other things.
     4. Disable hotkeys switch. Disables the possibility to use such hotkeys as win + d, win + m, alt + tab, etc during the playback.    

    6.“Graphics” section
          - Quality – it is possible to select the broadcast quality: “High” or “Best”. Note: choosing the “Best” quality will place an additional hardware load on the device.
          - FPS – number of frames per second drawn by the player
          - Smoothing – the smoothing function switch (removes “jagged effect”, the display becomes more organic)
          - Use hardware video decoding – increase the player performance through more rational use of hardware resources of the device

Note: it is recommended to use this option exclusively for playing devices on devices with low technical characteristics (for this purpose in ad campaign use “Fullscreen static” template). Also this setting allows you to play mp4 (h264) video on devices
