Not really, no. Each display message is discrete and is displayed
until it times out or another display request is sent to the SliMP3.
That was the reason I added a message queue to the SliMP3 Connector as
5 messages all at once would have the end result of just displaying
the last one.

Your best bet is probably a bit more involved than static file-based
xAP messages sent via xAP Send - you'd need to form your own xAP
message out of the results from HV and send a single display message
with each of the values on the one line. The SliMP3 will then
automatically scroll the message for you.

I'm really not sure what the HV interopability status for xAP is
though as I don't own one.
