MediaShout 7 Terminology Guide

Welcome to MediaShout 7! This guide clarifies the key terms and screen elements you'll encounter as you set up and use the software.

Display Screens

MediaShout uses multiple screens to manage your presentation. Here's what each one does:

• Control Screen
  The screen where you operate MediaShout 7 and manage your presentation flow.
• Main Screen
  The screen your audience watches (typically a projector or large TV monitor). This displays the active cue content.
• Stage Screen (optional)
  A "confidence monitor" positioned where the pastor, worship leader, and stage team can see upcoming content. Usually placed on the back wall or monitor stand.

Control Screen Elements

The Control Screen is divided into several key areas:

• Script Area
  The left panel where your cues are listed in order. This is your order of service—drag and rearrange cues here to change the flow.
• Cue
  An individual item in your script (e.g., a song, scripture reading, announcement, or sermon section). Each cue contains one or more pages.
• Pages
  The slides within a cue. For example, a song cue might have multiple pages—one for each verse, chorus, or bridge.
• Inline Editor
  The middle panel where you edit cues and pages. This is where you customize text, formatting, and layout before sending content to your screens.
• Fire Button
  The small play button on each cue. Click it (or double-click the cue) to send that content to your Main Screen and Stage Screen.
