    If both connections are available, WiFi will be used. What is the maximum file size for a single video file? The maximum video file size for the EP1031r/EP1032r-T is 2GB. We recommend reserving a safety margin to avoid exceeding the limit (i.e. limiting files to 1850MB).
  • Page 40 Why won’t some media files play properly? The video data bit-rate used may have exceeded the recommended bit rate. The video data bit-rate is the amount of video or audio data used per second to store or play the contents, usually expressed in Mbps (mega-bits per second). Video encoded with excessive bit-rates will not playback smoothly in the media signboard, likely due to storage I/O bottleneck.
