    Have you read the documentation and looked at the sample code?

    There's a command to read an image from a specified location on a memory card and display it.
    There also is a command to read a series of commands from the memory card and they show
    an example in the manual of a series of commands to display a sequence of images repeatedly
    from the memory card. It's kind of a command program complete with conditional testing and
    branching. I believe 4D Systems has a utility program on their website to help with handling the
    images, but the process is not automatic. You have to decide where you want to store the images
    and the "programs" on the memory card. You will need to decide how you want the animation
    to work (it's not really video) and create a "command program" to do what you want, then write
    that to the memory card.
    You might look at 4D Systems' website. I believe they have a discussion forum. You may be able
    to find suggestions there.

    NT,

    Have you downloaded the documentation for the display from our website? There is example code as well. This will give you the basis for talking to the display. The documentation describes (I think in 2.4.9) how to display an image or object on the display. You will need the Graphics Composer software to download images and videos to the SD card on the display for recall. This software can be found on the 4D Systems website. I hope this helps. Take care.

    There is no specific code already written per se. When you download images and objects to the card they will occupy specific memory areas and those will need to be incorporated into the code. I would look for a translator for the manual (perhaps Google or Babelfish).
