Hello, we need help!
Our computer crashed and we upgraded to a faster one with a bigger hard drive. The problem we have is that the copy of our Version 5 disc was in our safe, where everything else was kept, and we had a burglary and they stole the WHOLE safe. I talked with Tech support and they told me that if I could find a copy of the disc from someone on the form they would be glad to unlock it for us. They also told me that we should try to upgrade to version 7 for $199.00 but that is not in our church budget to be able to do that. Could anyone out there help us out with a copy of the Version 5 Disc?
Thank you and God bless.

Can you download it from the downloads page here? Scroll down to find the 5.5 downloads.

Of course, I don't think you can get any of the ProModules without a current subscription and that's the same cost as getting 7.0, I believe.

I'm not sure I understand what you need. I see version 5.5 release 4.0 through 5.3.

I don't have any SSP CDs. Not even the current version that we're on now.

I'm sorry I was misinformed by the tech I talked to. I'll need to track down our Church ID to access that page.
Thanks I'll see if I can find it.

It will not let me access the download it says "Current Subscription Needed". The price of the Current Subscription Needed is the price they want for the Version 7 which we can't get right now.
Thanks anyway

Did you list the value of the software on your insurance claim, when the safe was stolen? Or was that too long ago to amend?

Evidently that disk is worth the $495 purchase price of SSP.

No, unfortunately, it didn't get listed in the claim.  No one remembered it was in there. I tried to amend the claim but it was too late.

why dont you renew your subscription and upgrade to version 7....

There has been so much added since v5.

Also as a side note what is the specs on the new PC you are planning to run ssp on??
remember that v5 is not compatable with hyperthreading or dual core...

The newer computer we were blessed with is a used one from the church office, they needed to upgrade due to more demanding applications they are running. It's a eMachines T3090 with a 3800+ Sempron processor 1GB ram DVD CD-RW and 80 GB Hard drive. I will use the video card from the computer that crashed its a Matrox Millennium G450 Dual Head

I'm not real familiar with the Sempron processor. But you should be ok for basic stuff.

Matrox is not one of their recommended graphics cards. But I would think you'll be ok for 5.x functionality.

With the things we do with v7, we would bury a machine like that. But you're not used to the RipFX technologies. If you were on 5.0, you might not even be using any motion backgrounds at all, yet (I can't remember when they came in.)

In that case, you'll probably be fine.

If you have the license number that was subscribed when you initially purchased/installed SSP, you should be able to get to the downloads to download the newest version you are entitled to.

You should be able to call GoFishMedia.net at (877)458-6367 with your church information and they should be able to tell you your license code.

I was helping a lady from another church with an expired SSP subscription and that worked for us.

Of course, her subscription had only been expired for about a year or so. That may have something to do with being able to download from the site or not.

UPDATE: I just checked the download page and it only goes back to 5.5 version 4. So if the version you are licensed for is older than that, then you will need to try to find another user that has the install code.

I found the place to install the older version, however it only has December and no September. Please let me know where can I get a file or whether it's saved somewhere on the PC.

The Downloads Page should has December, September and before.

Thank you so much. You saved my life again. I tend to mess up with SSP during our conferences. Today is our second day and I'm glad it's back to 2009 September Edition. Unfortunately, developers cannot pinpoint the problem to why the text changed.

I'll renew my license when uni-code is integrated.

God bless.

RE: Official Status by chapelbythesea in User Support - V7 on Windows 7

Just to let you know, the Win 7 compatible release downgraded usability on my Win 7 machine, as compared to the non-Win 7 compatible previous release. The issues raised are posted in the Windows 7 User Support forum. One person suggested uninstalling and reinstalling with Cinematic FX disabled.

I haven't tried because I don't have time to mess with it. Will wait to hear that all such surprises have been cleared out.

thanks

Issue with Cinematic FX by Cleber Caldas in User Support - V7 on Windows 7

Just moving the discussion from "March 2010 Edition Available for Beta Testing" forum to this one as suggested.
At least for me, as described below, it was solved by not installing Cinematic FX, though we lose this plugin functionality, obviously.
Not sure if it will solve Ken's problem too, though I think so. I am only copying/pasting his post.


17 Mar 2010 05:36 PM  

Greetings, I do hope that the Windows 7 compatibility will be fully worked out by the time this one comes out. The December version is virtually unusable on my Windows 7 workstation, I am sorry to report to you. I went back to September edition. (Dec edition works fine on our XP presentation machine.)

Here are the issues my near-brand-new Windows 7 Professional has with Dec release of SSP:

1) Red "X" close button non-functional
2) "Exit" on menu non-functional 
      (ctrl-alt-del only way to close out Dec SSP on Windows 7 Professional OS)
3) "Program" drop-down menu non-functional
4) "Songs" drop-down menu non-functional
5) "Song/Edit" context menu non-functional

Thank you

Ken Rosentrater

17 Mar 2010 09:08 PM  

I had the very same problem while I was trying out the December Version with the Windows 7. After some "trial and error" process, I found out the problem is related to the "Cinematic FX" collection.

Try to uninstall and reinstall it without the Cinematic FX option (unselect it when reinstalling SSP). It worked fine for me. Good luck.

Cleber
P.S.: We run Windows 7 Professional 64bit Brazilian Portuguese version with a NVidia Geforce GT250 512MB video card.

March 2010 Beta - How to use Color Improv link is missing by George in SongShow Plus Beta Release Articles

Color Improv is included as part of the new Improv Collection and it appears in the Plug-ins panel that is typically at the bottom of the SSP Control Panel.  This tab is supposed to have a "How to use this plug-in" link similar to the Background Improv with basic instructions.  This omission was an oversight and it will be added later.

 The Color Improv is an advanced effect that allows on the fly hue adjustment and can be applied from the advanced effects tab in the display properties anywhere it is present.

One thing to keep in mind when using this is that Color Improv is a Hue adjustment and not a color filter so when applying this the result may be very subtle depending on what the original color or colors are.

This is pretty cool so have fun with it!

RE: Unstable for me by iamgap in Beta Test Support


I haven't yet updated to the latest release. Was this resolved? If not, it just happened again on the 2/24 beta.

It hung when switching from one song to another. One had the clouds animation with an image overlay @ 25% transparency and 100% size. The next had a Shift Worship MPG file (praise in cliff).

In order to get it to pop an Alert!, I clicked the SSP task (on the Windows Task Bar) three seperate times. The second reported Not Responding, the third popped the Alert!.

3432 - Hint: Ssp: Unable to use fill type: Video File. Reason: Unable to use video file due to it's slow response time

I have a pretty long trace file if you would like it. The video file is in the SSP Video directory, on the local HDD.



EDIT: I edited the file type from WMV to MPG, as I realized it was one of the few MPG types we still had. I also downloaded the WMV version, and used that after restarting SSP, without issue.

RE: Recommended Professional Level Video Cards (DI009) by George in Display Issues

*******ALERT*******

There has been a reported fan speed issue related to the NVIDIA 196.75 video driver. Consumers are reporting low video card fan speeds, overheating and hardware failure.

LINK TO NVIDIA DRIVER NOTIFICATION

This particular driver is not one that was recommended by the SSP Team, however there may be cause for concern if you recently updated your video drivers.

NVIDIA has removed the 196.75 driver version from the download area but it is worth checking your system to ensure you do not have it installed.  If you have this driver installed the recommendation is to uninstall it immediately and install an older driver.

RE: LogMeIn.com by fbcgoshen in Tips & Tricks

I use logmein every week to set up my program. As a matter of fact i just got done setting up the service for tomorrow using this. It comes in really handy if you are unable to attend a service and they are having issues. I have corrected monitor settings and what not from my office or lazyboy.

The other thing is we have a digital mackie mixer hooked to a different pc. I am able to run the board from home. I am able to work on the live audio feed from home since you don't always know what is going on with the feed at the church. I can also help other sound techs when they have issues.

I would highly recommend it to anyone. It is free unless you want the advanced features. It is also a good way to keep office computers going.

RE: Bug in 2/26/10 build by akins in User Support - V7

I might add to what George said by directing you to "presets" for songs and other items. We use somewhat similar formats for songs and scriptures each Sunday and I have "preset" these for quick application. I then can make modifications as desired for a particular Sunday.

RE: How to use ssptimer files by akins in User Support - V7

Just select the type you want (5 min, etc.) from the list and place it in the program. You can then edit the timer changing font, size, color (just two), placement, and two lines of text. Actually, the editing choices are fairly limited and have been the subject of wishes for sometime, but you can usually play around and get a decent look. Right clicking on the timer in the program and selecting "display properties" at the top of the list will allow you to add background color, images, and/or videos and you can apply "advance effects" to any of these.

Right-Click copy/paste menu does not work in PPT song import panel (TS098) by George in Troubleshooting

Symptom:
During a Song import from PPT the right-click menu is no longer available in the Slide Text box when importing song text from a PPT.  This may cause difficulty in editing content. Import is still possible and text entry and deletion are possible, only the right click menu is affected.   

Possible Cause:
Unknown - the root cause of this is still under investigation.
 
Possible Solution:
Import is still possible and text entry and deletion are possible.  The CTRL-X, CTRL-C and CTRL-V keyboard shortcuts work as well.  If a significant change in the arrangement of the text in the PowerPoint file is needed, this can be done using Microsoft PowerPoint.

December 2009 Edition - Bug Fixes (SSP070) by George in SongShow Plus Issues

There are some previously reported bugs that have been fixed in the December 2009 Edition:

  • Drag and drop in Win XP was broken and fixed in the Beta cycle.

  • An issue with nvidia driver version 196.21 that broke the SSP Beta on XP was corrected.
  • Print Slideshow and song list selection spinners grayed out
  • Builder re-run error causing file browser to open unexpectedly.
  • H.264 issue with playback of .m4v, .mp4v, and .mpg4 video corrected.
  • Path displayed incomplete when adding sub-folders to panels.
  • Snowflake Wipe transition not working as expected.
  • Font selection when editing text in the Slide Show Builder not working as expected.

H.264 videos or thumbnails may cause SSP to be unstable and lock up (TS097) by George in Troubleshooting

Symptom:
H.264 Video or thumbnails may cause SSP to be unstable and lock up when added or viewed.  

Possible Cause:
It appears that there are some H.264 video that can cause trouble in SSP. At this time this is very rare, however, the root cause of this is still under investigation.
 
Possible Solution:
This was discovered using movie trailer files that would play fine in applications other than SSP.  At this time there is no solution but it is best to try a different file to make sure it is not a wider issue.  Please contact the Support Team and provide the video file for analysis.

RE: Audio clip doesn't restart when slide show restarts by George in User Support - V7

Hmm - Interesting...

I just tried this using blank slides entered as program elements and got the same expected behavior I described before.  Are you using "blank" blank slides (default blank slide is black color only) or do you have something else set for your blank slides?

I would say at this point if the behavior persists and you can duplicated it, contact the support team so they can do a remote with you and actually see what is going on.

RE: SSP Version 5.5 with SongSelect Online by iamgap in User Support - V5.5


I too would recommed that you backup/archive/zip your current R-Technics folder and install the evaluation of version seven. If the PC cannot handle it, which I doubt, do a complete uninstall of Version 7 and go back to version 5.5.

It is my understanding that version 7 is much more stable, and can function more efficiently on an older machine than version 5.5 can.

RE: 32bit vs. 64bit by iamgap in User Support - V7 on Windows 7


To add yet another fly into the ointment...

I didn't realize that my MoBo has a 4 year old (2 yr older than the mobo) chip on it (intel 945). So even though the processor and motherboard can support up to 4 GB of RAM, the chipset can only address 3.2 GB of RAM.

What I am most upset about is that the board advertised that it could support up to 4 GB of RAM, but didn't say it could only address 3.2. Had I known that, I wouldn't have bought this board. Time for an upgrade. Now I gotta find a board that supports the RAM that I just bought for this board.
