Learning outcome
Create a clock layout in S.A.M., replace the default logo with an animated-logo video, and configure the video for silent looping playback.
Before you begin
You should already have a transparent, looping-ready animated logo saved as a video file.
Instructions
-
Open Layouts from the left menu, then click New Layout.
-
Open the Layout Templates dropdown and select Clock.
-
Choose the clock template, enter a descriptive layout name, and click Save.
-
In the layout editor, expand Media from the right-side menu, then select Add Your Logo.
-
Select the existing logo placeholder and delete it.
-
Select Add Your Logo again.
-
Click Content at the top of the page.
-
In the Add Content window, set Content Type to Upload Video(s).

Click Your Device and select the animated-logo video file. You can also select an existing file from Library or Dropbox.
-
Click Save and wait for the upload to finish.

Go to Advanced.

Turn on Mute Audio, then save the changes.
Expected result
The clock layout displays your animated logo without audio. Preview the layout to confirm that the logo loops smoothly before using it on a display.
