Worship Software - Sorry if it's the wrong forum

[Aaron Rich]

Hello!

My congregation rents a church that uses Mediashout 4. Some of my leadership has expressed a desire to create slides from home that we can then import into Mediashout.

So -
A. Is that possible?
B. What open source software would be best and easiest to use for this purpose?

We would like to be able to pull together the entire service and send it to the sound guy to import into Mediashout - songs, liturgy, sermon slides, the works. Is that possible?

Thanks!

Libreoffice presenter might work well for that but I do not know. That's what I use to make slides for my Church

As Tutorman pointed our, there is LibreOffice "presenter" that is an open source "PowerPoint"-like application. Search for OpenOffice and/or LibreOffice...

At the Mediashout webisite, there are many video lessons, including a video lesson on "Inserting PowerPoint Slideshows"

• MediaShout 6 Training

There's also an application feature list:

• Features | MediaShout Church Presentation Software & Media

We use Easy Worship in our church. We can introduce digital pictures into the media section of the program. We can save videos to the computer harddrive and then play them through media player with Easy Worship in the background. If your program can't incorporate the pictures into it, then you can use a photo viewing programme to run alongside the worship software and toggle between the two.
