Acquire Player shows a Red Screen or Playlist Not Found

After creating a project with or without pages and playlists, all I get is a red screen showing and it is not the content that I need. How can I resolve this?

Resolution:

When you create your project, you need to tell Acquire the default things to do for the project.  If you have not chosen something to do on start-up, or what you have chosen (media, page or script) does not exist, Acquire will attempt to show an Out of Order event. If this is not possible it will display a red screen instead.

When using the PLUS! Network to deploy your content, each player can have a different script or page to play, which is defined in the Scheduler.  If you leave the schedule empty for a player, it will use the default settings

To resolve this problem, all you need to do is ensure you select a page to play on start-up.

To do this:

1. On the Main Menu, click on your chosen project.

2. Click Project and select Project Settings;

3. Click the Screens and Pages tab;

4. Choose your preference for the On Start-up to show either show a graphic, Flash content or a single page or a script;

5. Click ... button and choose the media, page or script you wish to use and click OK.
