Hopefully, this article will help guide you through the process. The great news is that there are a lot of software options on the market. The flip side is that there are a lot of software options on the market. In finding the right software you need something with the chutzpah to handle video and audio playback along with your slide. And, you need software that you could sit a volunteer down in front of and know that they can quickly and easily pick up the interface and usage in order to operate it. This is not always an easy balance to find. In this article I will look at MediaShout 6 and ProPresenter 6.īoth MediaShout and ProPresenter are hitting in the big leagues. These are software programs that are used for professional presentations like band concerts and sporting events and not just Sunday morning worship only allow that is still their main target demographic. So, in that vein they pack a lot of punch. You will be able to do things in these programs that you cannot do (or do easily) in Keynote or PowerPoint. ProPresenter is Mac and Windows capable so what type computer you use is not as big a factor as it used to be.
That being said, if you plan on doing a lot of video play back, a Mac would be a better choice over a Windows PC, because Macs come pre-installed with more codecs. MEDIASHOUT UPGRADE SOFTWAREĬodecs are small pieces of software that are needed to decode video files. PC’s usually do not support as many video formats right out of the box. The last thing you want is to be desperately trying to find the right codec download at the last minute so you can play a video.Īnother factor is that ProPresenter 6 does not have all its module add-ons available for both Mac and Windows yet. Most are available for Mac only while some are available for both Mac and Windows.
Yes, I know Macs are more expensive but you also get what you pay for. If using a Windows PC ProPresenter recommends Windows 8 Pro with Windows Media Center or Windows 10.
