Pre-service loop

Nelson

I would like to be able to set a global time for pre=service loop. For example, 10 minutes total, 10 seconds per slide, and the preservice loops just continuously repeat them selves until time is up. Currently I have to Duplicate the preservice items enough to fill in 10 minutes worth of slides.

Are you talking about the Warm-Up section? 

The Pre-Service Loop will loop continuously until your start time approaches. So you shouldn't need to duplicate anything.

Warmup plays your items just one time. So I could see why you might want to explicitly set your warmup to 10 or 5 mins. And then you could have special slides and a countdown that would loop for that specified duration until the service finally starts.

Is the latter description what you want? Explicit time plus looping for the Warmup?

@Jordan Sjodin  yes,  sorry.   you are correct.  I would like the latter.  I would like to be able to do this in the warm up section so the timer shows up for our people in house,  and online.

in the warmup, yes...we Also do a 10 min countdown, and so I have to duplicate 10 mins worth of slides to make that work.  Instead, if there could be a "run for x mins" or repeat x times, or ANYTHING other than what we have now.

@Nelson  Hi Nelson - is there a reason you need it in the warm-up (e.g., you show different things in the pre-service loop)? You can add a countdown clock to the slides in the pre-service loop and just omit the warm-up section. It will just jump directly from your loop to the first slide in the service section. You can also customise the countdown clock size, placement, colour etc.

yes.  I only put a song in during the warm-up section so that our band can rehearse without the song playing over the system.  Then the song playing is a cue that they really need the rehearsal to finish.  So, because I use the pre-service loop with ~5 slides then I have to copy those 5 slides 10 times each into the warm-up section.  Being able to loop where we need would be very helpful.
