Dynamic Media

Dynamic Media allows you to specify and override images, such as sponsor images, driver headshots, car numbers, car images, etc.

Loading dynamic media​

For each type of dynamic media, you can use the Browse button to browse for a folder on your hard drive. Once selected, it will try to load all images (PNG, JPG, GIF, etc) into memory and display them below.

Binding images to drivers, teams, cars, manufacturers, etc.​

The filename of each image is used to link an image to a specific object in the sim, such as a driver, team or car. You can use the Identifier dropdown to select what property to use to link the images. For example, selecting CustomerId will make the theme look for images that match the customer ID of a driver. This means your media should be named to match the customer IDs of the drivers you are expecting. Selecting CarNumber instead will look for a matching car number, etc.

Image caching in memory​

By default, all images are loaded and cached in memory. If your image folder is massive, it may cause overflows or cause ATVO to use too much memory. In that case, you can turn off caching by disabling the Pre-cache all images on profile load setting. Now, images for this type of media will be loaded on demand. This may have a very small impact on the theme performance, but is generally not noticable.
