Hi,I have been evaluating the latest Open LP and a number of points have arisen.
1. Sometimes you get a flash of the desktop screen before switching to PowerPoint.
2. When running PowerPoint any change to on input selection or move to next item, PowerPoint stops.
3. Have had problems with PowerPoint running and just the black screen, reduced the hardware acceleration down until it functioned.
4. Would like under songs selections such as Hymns, Hillsong, favorites and others as we now have in Presenter 3.2.
Other wise system works very well.
Thank you for all your efforts.

I think that a search by type has already been proposed.....
The only thing I use PPT for at the moment is the announcement loop at the beginning, or if the Pastor has a PPT they want to use. This is temporary, in the near future, I will dump the announcement loop into a set of PNG files, then make those into a looping video and eliminate the need for PPT most of the time. The video could run background music for the times the pianist is away, and doesn't do a prelude.... There are only about 10 slides in the announcement loop, so this should be easy, it's whether Movie Maker can make a looping video or not.....
I can't tell you why your templates are not working, I don't use PowerPoint or Windows so my knowledge of those is mostly hearsay at this point.
