This spans mobile, Soundfaith, and Proclaim, so I'll just post here.
- The remote app crashed a bunch, never worked on my iPad where I was wanting to use it, wouldn’t load the slides, etc. But it finally came through on try 20 on my iPhone. The crashing is new, but the reliability of getting it to work and load everything on the first try is definitely not.
- The verse slides shorthand worked for me on Mac, but not on another computer in the same presentation group. (PC) I don’t have a lot of details about this, but it worked for him in the past.
- The slide timeline view in the remote app is TOO TINY to be useful. I really liked the other way better on iOS. I can't read any text to see what I am switching too, its not even a very good overview (like a grid view would be), and since we do all our switching remotely, it made things kind of a mess for us since we end up switching to the wrong slide a lot, and can't find the right one without clicking through them all. I think there needs to be more options for how you want the remote to display. The confidence view helps with some text issues, but it is still inferior since I need to see the images too.
- Soundfaith - for slideshows with separate images on separate slides, it publishes to soundfaith with them all stacked on top of each other and doesn’t switch. It is a bigger problem for us than for most probably, since proclaim doesn’t support typing in Thai, we have to type elsewhere, save it as an image and then import it to display, but it's still a problem. If it helps, the text was a png with transparancy in a song. Here is an example.
- During the sermon, there was one slide that just started flipping out, switching between 2 rapidly and wouldn’t stop.
I really like Proclaim, but it doesn’t exactly put my mind at ease each Sunday morning that I will have no problems.
