Hello Marc, thank you for your response! After any player is activated, it will default to the LFN (Local File Networking) setup unless something else is assigned to the player before hand. Your screenshot confirms the player is currently setup for LFN. For a BrightSign player to go from one set-up configuration to another there are two steps:

  1. Assign the new Blackdove partner setup record within the BSN Admin>Provision page. (You already did this)

  2. You need to explicitly 'Reprovision' the player through the Control tab of the DWS (Diagnostic Web Server). This will officially initiate the new Blackdove setup on the player.

The DWS is accessible through the 'Network' tab. Select the gear icon next to your player name to be taken to the remote DWS.

I will attach a download link to the latest OS firmware for your player here: cobra-9.0.168-update.bsfwarrow-up-right Steps for you:

Because you have already assigned your new Blackdove partner setup record to the player in the Admin>Provision page, clearing the SD and putting the new OS update on the card will allow the player to not only update to the latest OS, but then download the most recent Blackdove setup record.
