Follow- Discovered a potential bug today. During a Memorial service today, I had scheduled an Image Slideshow with many pictures. They were set to shuffle and repeat (in pre- and post-service loops). The pictures displayed on air in their shuffled mode. However the Live Stream output (set to mirror) displayed in the order of the photos as listed in the service item. Not a big deal as the stream wasn't showing both the pictures and the video feed (with displayed pictures), but certainly unexpected.

- Quick question: Does anyone know how to get Lyrics from multi tracks into proclaim and to sync with an iPad for the tracks using the playback app? I'm on an iMac M4 and the iPad is an 11" pro m4.
- Well, from what I know, Proclaim does not allow us to import lyrics from Multitracks.com. If you press on your profile on proclaim, then press "Link Your Accounts" you'll see that Proclaim so far only allows, SongSelect, Planning Center, Elvanto, and WorshipPlanning. However, you could always just copy the lyrics and the song number, credits, etc, and just add a new song into your Song Library. Now, as for syncing with like playback app, that relates to midi automation. That part is not that difficult. You have to create 2 midi notes under "Settings, MIDI Input". Then add command. Add these two commands: "Go to Service Item slide ..." and "Go to Service Item in Service section...". Then for MIDI do note on, for both, and then you have to select the note, i chose Note 19 for the first, and note 20 for the second (see image below). Now quick explanation of the 2 midi commands. The second command allows you to select the section number under the Service section on Proclaim. Cause remember, we have Pre Service, Warm Up, Service, and Post Service. So under Service, you pretty much count downward. If you start off with a song, then that's Service slide 1. Now within that song, the first command chooses the slide number of your song. You don't start with 1 there, now you start with 2, since you've already selected your first slide when selecting the service section slide. Choosing the slide numbers is all done through Playback, Ableton, Prime, etc. In proclaim you just make the Midi notes. Then you also have to create a scene under Lighting/MIDI. Edit your scene, then add the notes under there again. And make sure that your MIDI input is coming through. In Mac's it's very easy and there's many videos on how to do this online through like ProPresenter and such. It's literally the same steps on Proclaim. Assuming that's all done, you should be able to add the notes on your playback rig and then automate your slides. It's up to you to time the slide switches and stuff.
- To add to this, if you go to View > Show Service Item Indices it can help as you don't have to do the counting (for service items and individual slides)
- As far a lyrics go When I run into that issue I cut and paste them into Word and the cut and paste them into Proclaim from word.
- Quick question: Is there a way not to display hymn number in the song slides? We can set easily for the song title, but not for the hymn number?

Thomas Nix That is the song title slide which we don't use. We place the song title (and credits) in the first slide of the song. Anyway all setting shows the hymn number on the top right hand corner of the screen for every song slide, even if you have a song title slide.- As a workaround, just add the Hymn number to the song title field instead of the hymn # field. This way you can use the visibility setting.
- Customize your SMART media template. On the first slide of your song right click, then choose "Customize Smart Media" Remove the HYMN NUMBER from your template. Alternatively you can just edit the hymn number box and use a font color that matches the background and turn off any effects. The hymn number will still be there, but it will not be seen (a purple font on a purple background means it won't be seen. Then add a Text Box to the first slide only with the hymn number indicated. From the looks of it, the Feature Request to Logos would be to add a checkbox similar to the "Show Credits..." checkbox.
- Question for everyone: On screen Bible book introductions are not appearing every time I advance to the OSB slide on preview when on air and not on air. Anyone else have this problem?
- At 東宣日系基督教會 OMS Japanese Christian Church of Walnut Creek (CA, USA), I've never run across the problem cited.
- Well make sure it's enabled in your settings. So just go to Quick Screens in Settings tab, then scroll and enable/disable the book introduction. See image:
- I love what you guys are doing with the app, and I have some pointers I would like to share and ask if this can be implemented. As seen on the subject line, I do know that when using the remote app, you can use the On-screen bible app under quick screens to send a bible reference; however, it's not as user-friendly. Let me break it down for you: If a user would like to go to change to a different passage (Eg. Psalm 1 but loads up Psalms 1:1-2 ) each time, they would have to manually put in that reference each time, whereas if you have added the bible item in the main body of the presentation and put in Psalm 1 it will load up the whole chapter. For speakers (especially elderly people) this will not work. They need to be able to choose the scripture and tap to the next reference when reading. To fix this would seems to be able to add the bible items in the quick screen instead of the on-screen bible. Also what we do in our production we create a app to use your api calls and also use pyautogui to input the bible references in using a tablet or a phone. We did this because it is not user-friendly and too slow to manually type the bible reference. It would be nice to implement this (please see an image of the app). Adding Bible buttons in your remote app would be a game-changer for you guys. Please do send this to your dev team and let me know if this going to be under deaf ears as well lol.
- can I ask what app you are referring to?
- MESSEGES TO THE MONITORS: When putting up a message it only goes to the 'confidence' monitor. However, how can I put a message on the 'main' monitors? I want to be able to put Nursery Baby Numbers for when we need a parent to go check on their child.
- Crawl text in the upper left displays on all screens. Next to crawl text is "pager"--made specifically for this application.
- How can I place the time of day in the corner over the presentation slides on rear confidence monitor? I also need the videos to show with countdown clock.
- Hi Mark Purdy, there are help articles about setting up a custom confidence monitor. It's easy to create a custom confidence screen as you imagine; however, it's important to understand that the video player option will only play a video from a video content item, rather than a video set as a background.
