Creating Custom Sermon Builder Templates in MediaShout 7.6.1
MediaShout 7.6.1 lets you create custom templates for the Sermon Builder. This guide walks you through the process step by step.
Template Requirements
A Sermon Builder template must have exactly 3 cues:
- Cue 1 (Title): Blank or Text cue
- Cue 2 (Point): Blank or Text cue
- Cue 3 (Scripture): Bible cue
The cue names must be exactly as shown above—do not rename them.
For best results, design your template at 1024x768 resolution. It will scale up gracefully to any higher resolution.
How to Create Your Template
1. Start With a Base Template
Make a copy of the template called Template 6_Basic-NoBG and edit that copy.
2. Change the File Extension
Change the file extension from .sc7 to .sc7x.
You now have a three-cue script ready to customize.
3. Customize Your Template
You can modify:
- Background color or image
- Text formatting (font, size, color)
- Textbox size and position
- Layout and spacing
Do NOT:
- Change the cue names (Title, Point, Scripture)
- Add or remove cues
