MediaShout 2.5 Overview

Presentation software delivering life's most important message - through song lyrics, Bible verses, graphics, text screens, sounds and video clips - so your audience won't forget.

New in Version 2.5

MediaShout 2.5 contains many enhancements to make the program more powerful, more flexible and more reliable than ever. While most of these tweaks and additions are behind the scenes, a few can be seen and explored immediately.

Motion Backgrounds

Now you can superimpose text over video and animation clips without the use of an external key device. To do it, simply assign a video or Flash file as the background to a Lyric, Bible or Text cue.

PowerPoint Playback

Play a .ppt presentation file straight from MediaShout, by assigning the file to a Show cue (yep, a new cue type). Each slide is treated as a subcue, so you can preview one slide while playing another.

CCLI SongSelect Import

If you're a member of CCLI's SongSelect lyrics service, you can search, download and import songs from the SongSelect website straight into the MediaShout song library.

Multiple-Song Deletion

If you've ever imported a bunch of songs only to discover that they were already in the library, you'll appreciate this one. ShoutSinger now lets you select multiple songs (as many as you want) and delete them all at once.

Automatic Text Scaling

A major enhancement, this optional feature scales a Text cue document's fonts and margins to vastly improve the likelihood that it will look the same on the display screen as it did the text editor - even if the screen resolution has changed in the meantime.

New in Version 2.0

Song Lyrics

Import, export, search, edit, organize and print all your song lyrics in ShoutSinger. This complete song-management application is integrated in MediaShout 2.0.

Bible Cues

Display any Bible passage of any length. New translations (including NIV) and more formatting choices ensure that your Bible screens look better than ever.

Text Screens

Create multi-page announcements and message-support screens with bullets, numbering, tables and more. ShoutWriter, a complete word-processing application, is included with MediaShout 2.0.

Drop Shadows & Outlines

Add a text shadow or outline effect to any lyric, Bible or text screen.

Flash Animations

Play full-screen, full-motion Flash files from Animation cues.

Superimposed Text Messages

The new Kim feature (keyed instant messenger) superimposes any text over any cue. Great for emergency messages and displaying nursery numbers.

Transitions

Dozens of new transitions, including smooth dissolves, crossfades and soft-edged wipes.

Multiple-Cue Editing

Insert all your Lyric cues at once. Create instant slide shows by inserting dozens of Graphic cues in seconds. Change background, duration, transition or any other common setting in multiple cues in one step.

Previewing

The onscreen ShoutMonitor now allows you to preview any of four different cues with a mouse click: One choice lets you preview the next Script cue. Great for staying one step ahead of the live program.

Features

Total Control

Dual-monitor design allows you to select, preview, and even create a cue without interrupting the image the audience sees. The control screen, which appears only on your computer monitor, ensures that every feature and cue is within a mouse click or two of every other. Total, instant, random-access control.
