Live video

Phil

My church is looking into installing a video camera and doing live streaming to other areas of our building.   However, we don't wish to have the video on our main screen in the sanctuary.   Is it possible to do this all within proclaim? Or do i need to look into hardware splitting options?

Thanks,  Phil

Hi, Phil. Proclaim doesn't support outputting different slide views to different outputs, i.e. you can't broadcast two presentations from one machine to multiple outputs. The good news is that you can run concurrent on air sessions from multiple machines, so here's how I'd set it up:

Machine A takes live video output and overlays it on your Proclaim slides. You set all of your display outputs to "Slides" and go on air, broadcasting to all the screens outside of the sanctuary. Machine B, in the main sanctuary, has Proclaim running and goes on air to show your sermon slides.

Having multiple slides outputs (essentially having multiple on air sessions, one client, and one machine) is something that's on our list of future improvements. If the solution outlined above doesn't work for you, you may want to look into a splitter. The folks here on the forums, in the faithlife group,  or the church tech group might have some suggestions to point you in the right direction.
