Overview
CinemaVision uses the Feature Module to display and control the ratings bumpers in your preshow. If you want to include a ratings bumpers in your preshow, you must add a Feature Module to your Sequence. There's no need to configure the Feature Module in most cases, as it defaults to using video ratings bumpers, which we'll download in this guide. CinemaVision currently has full support of JPG, PNG, GIF and BMP images, as well as support for the video ratings bumpers you'll find here.
