Propresenter Tricks and Tips

[Wojobass]

Okay we are now Propresenter People!

Anyone with some tricks and tips, or shortcuts please let me know. I know MS3 had a large forum (because there were always problems). Anyway, not bitter about MS3 just need to let it go and move on...just move on. Thanks,

I wish I could offer up a long list of tips but I don't work well that way. Ask some questions and we'll do our best to answer them quickly. Also, know that the Renewed Vision "people" are very helpful and almost always quick to respond.

Pretty much everything we have wanted to do, we have been able to do. They set things up differently from most other presentation software, so its not always obvious the first try.

i have a question...
how do i make a set of announcements that loop????

i used livetype to create mov's of the announcements... and then i'm trying to get it to auto switch from one slide to the next...

What you do is create a new song and call it "announcements" or whatever. Then go into edit mode and right click on the slide and choose "add foreground media element." That should do what you need. Add as many slides with media elements as you wish. Then you can set timings for that song and let it rip.

You could also make the announcements one long movie and set it as a looping background. I dunno if that suits your needs or not. Just a thought that would be easier to work with.

Hope this helps,

Is there a way to import bible verses into propresentor? Again, mediashout mentality. What I've done is created a slide with the verse on it and I am now trying to add a background. The funny thing is when you add a .jpg as a background, the text doesn't show. Only on the moving backgrounds does the forground text show. Trying to work it out. thanks for all the help

I dunno about directly importing bible verses in a short form. I just create a new "song" and cpy and paste scriptures or whatever else I need on the slides.

However, it sounds like you are getting an error with the BG issues. Every week we use JPG BG images with our lyrics. I don't do anythign funky or use any workarounds, just import them and click on them.

What is the process you are using to accomplish that stuff?

Sorry I'm so late in responding Travis,

I've pretty much have a handle on things now and we are rolling along very well. Thanks for all the info.
