The ability to choose 1 or 2 bit rendering on a per-plugin basis is not yet a released feature. It will be released in late 2025.
Seeing 2-Bit Images with a Demo
When 2-bit was released, we enabled it automatically with the Redirect and Alias plugins, since they were primarily used for images, it was a great way to show-off the functionality if you properly formatted the images you were targeting.
Thanks to a community contribution, a few easy steps lets anyone see the glory of the 2-bit upgrade for images.
Add the Redirect Plugin
Set the Web Address to:

That's it! Now a random 2bit image will be displayed on the frequency you set in your playlist.
Enable 2-bit for your Device
This feature is available to any account with at least one developer license. It requires accessing our Discord server.
Through our Discord server, pinned in our #General channel are the instructions. Once enabled by our team for your account, you will be able to update any device in your account to use 2-bit always in the device settings:
Note: This process is temporary, while 2-bit is in beta, due to software features not yet released that enable a per-plugin configuration.
