I will show you how to use the plugin „Image Burner“ from Max2Play and what opportunities it can offer you.<\/p>\n
With this plugin, you can save pre-configured images on your Max2Play device. It is possible to give a name to the image, assign its own path and a short description about the image before you can save it onto the Max2Play image burner list. With this option, it is also a management system for all saved image-files. Additionally, you can burn more than one sd-card with the same image-file at the same time. During the burning process the sd-card is made into a bootable device.<\/p>\n
You can use this plugin with other plugins from Max2Play, but you should use the Image Burner on a separate Max2Play image and on a separate sd-card. It allows you to save backups on this image.<\/p>\n
Perfect for people who want to burn several images for friends and operating partners.<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [sf_gallery gallery_id=“22113″ slider_transition=“slide“ show_thumbs=“no“ autoplay=“yes“ show_captions=“yes“ enable_lightbox=“no“ width=“1\/2″ el_position=“last“] [spb_text_block title=“What Exactly Is An Image Burner?“ pb_margin_bottom=“no“ pb_border_bottom=“no“ width=“1\/1″ el_position=“first last“]\n
What is an image?<\/strong><\/p>\n Images (or ISO-Images) are archive files of optical discs. ISO image files usually have a file extension of .iso. With this file it is possible to burn the image onto an sd-card and the device can be booted.<\/p>\n With the Max2Play Image Burner, it is possible to write on several sd-cards at the same time with a saved image (backup or pre-configured software setup of Max2Play). Existing files and partitions are\u00a0deleted during the process. The Image Burner will not only overwrite the old files, it works like the Win32DiskImager. It installs a bootable image, so you can be assured to have a fully functional system.<\/p>\n A Raspberry Pi 3 and a device at which you can connect several SD-cards are required. To save the backup files, you need a Max2Play-Image on an sd-card with enough space. Here, it is important to know how many different versions you want to save. This is my setup:<\/p>\n I am using a Raspberry Pi 3 and a case for it. The assembly is pretty straightforward. The first setup of Max2Play is ready after a few steps:<\/p>\n Now you can open\u00a0the menu of the plugin (right picture). Here you can see at the beginning a default menu and different options.<\/p>\n You have to save the Image on the filesystem of the Max2Play device. For this, you can take an SD-card (which is used until this moment to play music or something else) and plug it into a USB SD-Card-Reader.<\/p>\n To save this image, go to the menu „Create SD-Card-Image from a SD-Card | SD-Card device for Image creation:sda<\/strong>“<\/p>\n Then, you click on „Add Image to burning list“. In the next step, you can give your image a name, a file path and a short description. If you want, you can add a description to specify the Image.<\/p>\n Max2Play is now saving the Image. It is then added to the list. This process may take a while, please be patient. If it is ready, you can see in the info box. There, a text appears, saying „Creating Image was successful<\/strong>“ (right picture)<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [\/spb_column] [spb_column width=“1\/3″ el_position=“last“] [spb_single_image image=“22108″ image_size=“full“ frame=“noframe“ intro_animation=“none“ full_width=“no“ lightbox=“yes“ link_target=“_self“ width=“1\/1″ el_position=“first last“] [spb_single_image image=“22112″ image_size=“full“ frame=“noframe“ intro_animation=“none“ full_width=“no“ lightbox=“yes“ link_target=“_self“ width=“1\/1″ el_position=“first last“] [\/spb_column] [spb_column width=“2\/3″ el_position=“first“] [spb_text_block title=“Example Setup“ pb_margin_bottom=“no“ pb_border_bottom=“no“ width=“1\/1″ el_position=“first last“]\n Finally, I want to show you an application example. In the following example, I will show you how you can use the Image Burner to save a lot of time. As I mentioned earlier, I am using a Lexar Professional Workflow Card-Reader<\/a>. With this device and the Max2Play-Plugin<\/a>, it is possible to burn 12 SD-cards at the same time.<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_text_block pb_margin_bottom=“no“ pb_border_bottom=“no“ width=“1\/2″ el_position=“first“]\nPlease Note: After burning,\u00a0your SD-card is not readable by Windows. You can fix this with a quick formatting.<\/blockquote>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_text_block title=“What Do We Need?“ pb_margin_bottom=“no“ pb_border_bottom=“no“ width=“3\/4″ el_position=“first“]\n

\nWPS: If you start the Raspberry Pi without a LAN-Cable plugged in and simultaneously activate WPS on your router, the Raspberry Pi with Max2Play OS will automatically connect with the router.<\/blockquote><\/li>\n
