RE: Background improv issue by techarts in User Support - V7- I can't duplicate that problem. WE use 6/30/09 program too. We use Background Improv quite a bit and use Improv in Global or Insert Display Properties or individual Song properties and it doesn't matter - we don't have a problem showing images or videos from the Plug-In Control Window display. If we select the Background Image property AND the Motion Background-Background Improv then the Improv takes precedence and only the Plug-In image/video (not the background image chosen in the Background Image properties) will show. For us to get the background image to show as a default, you have to set the Motion Background - Background Improv properties to use default image file and select the default image to see this.
A kind of interesting thing is that when you are in the display properties and have set a Background Image property and then set a Motion Background - Background Improv to a default image file, the image from the Background Image property shows in the thumbnail view but when you select a thumbnail for preview, the default image file from Background Improv setting is shown.
This may be confusing answer, but bottom line is that it seems to work as advertised for us.

RE: Adding sounds to transitions by osborn4 in User Support - V7- Sorry. No way to do that with SSP. Might make a good wish for the wishlist.

Adding sounds to transitions by clee in User Support - V7- As a former PowerPoint user, I would often find the need to add sounds to my transitions, such as a bang, roar, etc. any kind of a wav file. Is there a way to do so in SSP? For instance, in the middle of a bible verse, I want to add a sound effect. The old way that I would do so in PowerPoint would be to duplicate a slide, and have no movement transition but sound only on the second slide. I would advance the slide when the sound was needed. I would really appreciate any advice on this! Thx!

RE: Import lots of XML Songs by osborn4 in User Support - V7- Here's the XML format that SSP uses.
Hopefully that will help. I've not tried it before.

Background improv issue by iamgap in User Support - V7
If Background Improv is set as your default motion background, you cannot use an image background. Even if you have Transparent as the Default Background. I have also tried No Change, and the Background Image will not show. I have to set Background Improv to None. IMO this negates the advantage of Background Improv.
This started as soon as I installed the 6/30/2009 update.
EDIT:
I just found that if I manually click the transparent button on the Plug-in Panel, the background image becomes available. It is as if the Display Properties is not triggering the Transparent option as it should.

RE: Import lots of XML Songs by iamgap in User Support - V7-
I haven't used it, but there is an import from XML feature. It is not a default Plug-in, so you have to select it during the install. You can add it by running the SSP installer again. The installer will only install items you check. Also note that it is a Professional plug-in, so you cannot install it if you have a basic license.
You can also install the Plug-in using the SSP Updater. Start Menu\Programs\SongShow Plus\SongShow Plus Update. Select All available components and Click here to check for updates. XML Importer will be an option under the Proffessional Level Plug-ins.

RE: May 2009 Edition Released by osborn4 in Latest News- If your projector has a freeze function and the content of the main screen isn't going to change, then you could freeze the main projector and show whatever you want on the secondary display.
But you'd have to remember to change what you are displaying back before you unfroze the main projector.

RE: May 2009 Edition Released by bhackle2 in Latest News- If they make the second screen editable that would be hugh!
I was looking at Media Shout for that reason. Every support person I talked to said the same thing "the second display shows the same as the first except no background", but on the forums I found a person that found a way to edit the second display. I would rather use Song Show. Our media team really likes its ease of use.

RE: May 2009 Edition Released by osborn4 in Latest News- As I understand it, the feature will only show the same words on both monitors, just different formatting.

RE: May 2009 Edition Released by bhackle2 in Latest News- I'm excited about the secondary display output. Has anyone figured out how to edited the secondary display? We currently use two computers. One computer displaying lyrics only for the congregation, and the other computer displaying lyrics and notes to the praise team. If Song Show will allow editing of the secondary display, we can get by with one less computer and operator.

RE: Change DataPath to use external drive? by osborn4 in User Support - V7- Yes. In SSP, go to Tools -> Utilities and select Data Files Setup From there, follow the bouncing ball.
You will need to be sure and have that drive attached whenever you fire up SSP. But I don't know why it wouldn't work.

Change DataPath to use external drive? by jmsuttle in User Support - V7- I just added an external drive to our media computer, and would like to change the data/file path for our SSP items to this external drive. Is it possible to change the default file location? If so, please direct me to the function in SSP. The current location default is as follows:
| DataPath: |
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\R-Technics\SongShow Plus |
Thank you in advance,

Am I correct in my thinking that the New Public Bibles are already included in the install; and the $25 fee is per machine/per translation only for the bibles listed above?
Yes, you are correct. At least the public domain versions got loaded with the preview version. So I would assume they are still there.
