I know OPenLP doesn't allow that, but Unified Remote does. And it can handle more than key presses and short cuts, among the things it can handle are HTTP requests, which I presumed was how OpenLP's remotes communicate with the program. What I'm h…
Never realized it was that easy to make a new stage view. I presume if I create one,it doesn't overwrite in updates like if I modify the CSS? That's the one thing that I have to do when I upgrade in the past. Also thanks for sharing your Chroma …
One thing I discovered today is that you need to use the 32 bit version of VLC, not the 64 bit. Upgraded our VLC a couple weeks ago, and started having some video issues. Today, I thought to check the settings on video player and saw that.
We use Drive for that, and it works, but as said above, it's not ideal. I need to do some major cleaning on the database and work out a new workflow, the person that does most of the work is not tech savvy. That's something I wish there was better…
I have had success with running it on XP, there have been a few non-critical issues, but it still does the job. I need to get time to upgrade the computer to 7, but took the chance, and it works. I wish I could move that pc (and the rest of them in…

Optional split WILL do split the slides, but only when it's necessary based on the theme. Some of the themes we use support up to 6 lines, a few only support 3 or 4. If in a 6 line theme, I show 5-6 lines for a slide, then when I switch to a 4 li…
What I do is open the image in Macromedia Fireworks (Yes, pre-adobe version, works great for my needs still). And then I'll draw a box where I want text to appear. Fireworks gives me the X/Y co-ords as well as the height/width to set in the theme.
Yes, but searchable by topic is in the works, I believe, so that would be a less disruptive work around. I use that, also, to record who usually leads the song.
