Manage Bibles

I see that all the possible Bibles are in the list, WOW! Over half of these Bibles will never be used by us so V7 needs to let the User manage which Bibles are visible. In V6 the User could Add or Delete Bibles which was great, a nice short list to pick from each service.

Page Break/Text Boxes

PLEASE add Page Break to normal text boxes as well as Lyric and Bible boxes. I frequently cut and paste a call to worship, and have to manually copy and paste the text. It would be MUCH easier to just add a Page Break as needed. Hey Mark, I will pass this along. Just to be sure, you're only seeing this issue with text boxes that have been manually added. Is that correct? -Ryan That is correct. The "Page Break" only works on bible and lyric boxes. Additionally, the behavior of the "Apply Fo...

Behavior of "Apply Formatting to all pages in cue"

The behavior of this selection seems to be inconsistent. Sometimes it comes right up, sometimes you have to click off the text box and back, sometimes it remains greyed out and doesn't work at all. Can we please look into this? Hey Mark, Yes, this is something that we will improve with each update. I have found the best option is to click off of the text box first, then right-click onto it and you'll find what you need that way. I'll pass this along to the team! -Ryan The issue seems to be...

Update background on multiple selected cues at once

I'd like the ability to select multiple cues and change their background when I drag a new background to any of the selected cues. Currently if I select multiple cues and drag a background it only updates the one that I drop it on. This is different from the option currently available that changes all the backgrounds in the script.

Cues Library storage format and missing media

I use a networked drive for media, so I would prefer to have the option for the Cues Library to be saved as .sc7 instead of .sc7x files. The way it works right now, when I pull in a cue from the Cues Library the media gets put into the "Script_Media" folder. Then I delete the folder for my script in "Script_Media" and relink the "Missing Media" to my network drive. It would also be nice to set the folder to search in for Missing Media and all the links would be updated to that folder instead of ...

Add a layer to Lyric cue that is on every page

I'd like the ability to add a layer to the lyric cue and have it show on every page in that cue. During the song played for communion we have an additional graphic we put up in the corner that has information about communion. Currently to add this I have to copy and paste the image onto every page in the Lyric cue. I'd like to be able to add a layer and choose to have it added to all the pages, similar to the way the title layer is available on all pages. I'd also like this to be available in th...

Add the option to save the Mirror Main setting with lyric cues

We are using the stage display for streaming and lower third lyrics with a green background. Our MS operator always has to switch Mirror Main to No when the song begins and then switch it to Yes when the songs end. In our case, lyric cues always should have Mirror Main = No for the streaming video. We must also be careful to coordinate the Mirror Main switching with our video producer to avoid black or green screen Program video on the stream. Having Mirror Main saved with lyric cues would impro...

Lighter/Standard User Interface Option

Please allow the user to switch between the current UX (dark mode) and either light mode or standard Windows chrome. I use Media Shout outside on a laptop in the summer and the current interface is too dark, not enough contrast to see the different elements. Thanks! This was added in Version 7.5.0.24332 - August 31, 2022. It can be downloaded from www.mediashout.com/download

Utilize PNG images as overlays with transparent background/ alpha channel

It would be useful to be able to broadcast transparent backgrounds to allow for easy graphical overlay of camera shots.

automatic or one-click CCLI reporting utility

It would be very valuable, and build support with our worship leaders, if Mediashout could develop an integrated CCLI report feature that would be either automated monthly or a simple one-click direct submission. Apparently this has been a sought after feature in Pro Presenter forums that is not available and could position mediashout with something unique.

Comment cue

I would like to see the return of the Comment cue in MS7. In MS6 I would insert comment cues to mark certain points in the service to make it easier to follow along and ensure that if I was inserting something I was in the right "section". We also miss the Comment cue greatly. MS7 is supposed to be an improvement over MS6 and arbitrarily removing it is not welcomed. PLEASE bring it back. Would be nice to know if development has taken notice and let us know if they plan to bring the comments ba...

Default bible version MS6

At present if more than one Bible translation is present in MS6, then at start up the first in the list is selected as default, meaning the version has to be changed to that required every time the programme is used. I suggest that it is made an option to set a Bible Translation that is selected as default every time the programme is started.

Editor view collapse cues on left

When I'm in editor view in MS7 I would like to be able to collapse the thumbnails and just see the titles, like I could in MS6 by checking Compact Script View. It would make navigating around to put cues in the right place much easier. On the first que hover over icons (the first one is the fire icon and ends with collapse). If I understand your comment I think you're referring to the collapse that minimizes the pages within a cue. I'm referring to being able to show the cues in the left pane ...

Implementation of NDI

Hi, It would simplify. Range of issues for us if NDI was implemented. At present we capture MediaShout on one screen and output this in the live stra ,however to use something like Zoom it is difficult to manage this process and also allow Zoom to be an input into Vmix. Even allow the stage output to be an NDI screen may help. Shalom Paul

User interface GUI slide bars

Please make the slide bars on the user interface bigger (wider), or stretchable so that it would be much easier to line the mouse up on them.

Direct video stop/start entry

Please make it possible to directly input the video start/stop as in 4.5. I do not yet see it in the wish list. Hey there! This is currently available in MediaShout 7. Get with our team (support@mediashout.com) and we can walk you through this. Thanks! -Ryan

Text outline

In prior versions, text outline operated differently. We would use it to make sure text stood out regardless of variations in a given background. For example, if the background has a white section, then white letters would be impossible to read. But with a black outline to give contrast, all was well. That has changed with version 7. Currently, the text outline option is applied inside the letters, so an outline of a certain size completely fills in the letter to the point where the original col...

Sync Bible main to stage with book, chapter and verse from main.

Earlier versions synced the Bible reference to the stage from the main which was great. I know we can use tokens but they can't be centered or arranged in any way. It would be great if that ability could be reinstated.

Counters - on timed slides and ESPECIALLY video media

In addition to the previous request to show counters on timed slides - it would be REALLY useful if the counters for videos were right there on the viewer or in the presenter screen as well, so you don't have to go looking for it. A feature I have on other products - a count DOWN timer - is very helpful too. Hey Mark, Thanks! I'll pass this along for you again! Thanks again, -Ryan I did find if you go to the Fire Control Plugin and select the video tab, it will display the video with a timer...

Folders in the Library

Being able to categorize images and videos into folders instead of scrolling through them all would be a nice feature. Hey Shannon, Thanks for your request! I can confirm that we do plan to add Folders and Sub-Folders to the Library section. As you said, this will make it much eaier to organize this library section. We hope to have that in an update coming soon. Thanks! -Ryan This question was answered 6 months ago with "hope to have that in an update coming soon". Any idea how much longer ...
