H.264 (aka H.264 AVC or AVC) and .MOV video file playback support There must be a PCM audio stream. We cannot decode with multi-channel (surround sound) streams Both SD and HD up to 720p MP@L3, 720x480, 30FPS interlaced or progressive (preferred) MP@L3, 720x576, 25 FPS, interlaced or progressive (preferred) HiP@L4, 1280x720, 30 FPS, progressive HiP@L4, 1280x720, 24 FPS, progressive Stereo Audio, 48 KHz We do NOT support transport stream files (.mzts/.ts) We do NOT support non-H264 MOV files Non H.264 MPEG4, non H.264 MOV, and H.264 video in other wrappers, such as FLV, are not supported at this time.
WMV-HD (aka WMV9) MP@HL (Main Profile @ High Level) aka WMV 9 Files must have an .wmv extension to play For web thin client, WMV-HD is supported when connected by a dedicated 100Base T LAN (not over Wifi, or Internet) Bitrates up to 6 Mb/s 720x480, 29.95, 30 FPS, progressive 720x576, 25 FPS, progressive 1280x720, 30/60 FPS, progressive 1920x1080, 30 FPS, interlaced and 1920x1080, progressive* ** (requires 10,000 RPM dedicated video drive. Only a single video zone playing, limited total number of zones. Performance strongly depends on hardware configuration) Fast, dedicated, video drives are strongly recommended if playing more than one video file simultaneously, and playback of any HD video content or large MNG animation files.

MNG Animation file exported from some third party animation software. Alternately Audience will create an MNG by converting a series of sequential PNG files from an animation program. Alpha is supported.
FLASH .SWF alpha supported (do not use 1 bit PNG files) (some .web and web.ply limitations) Flash with ACTIONscript, especially those that require user interaction or that read data from a source outside the playback computer are not supported. The file should be single layer without any interactive controls. Fonts must be embedded.
