Re: [disklavier] Images etc Mark 4

Good morning, everyone.

The MyPictures folder is for displaying pictures on the tablet  
controller.

Graphics that are displayed via the analog video output are graphics  
contained in a special file bundle called PSPG  
(PianoSoftPlusGraphics). The Mark IV comes with a number of these PSPG  
files. Play the files as normal files, enjoy the music, and watch the  
output on your TV.

Regards,
PianoBench
