Using L-5 and video projector

Lynwood E. Davis

I use Word software to preach from a manuscript, and at the same time use a projector to project my Logos 5 Scriptures on a screen.  Is there a way I can project some of my sermon notes and Scriptures in Logos 5?

 

What are your thoughts or how would do it?

Not directly from L5, but there's a tight coupling of L5 to Proclaim... you might check out Proclaim...

I use projection during worship & a Word manuscript. I'm using Sunday Plus (which is now defunct--they went out of business early last year & I mention them only because it's no longer available). Why? So I can get non-linear projection for the hymns, songs, & announcements that we also project...  Non-linear allows slides to be shown in any order rather than straight thru like power point (unless you laboriously build links to other pages into it--& even then you're limited to that plan only). Proclaim is non-linear show slides as appropriate. When our current software dies (or we have to upgrade to a pc that won't run it), we'll probably take another look at Proclaim.

I don't find it hard to use CBV to pop a Scripture into the projection software (pick one). Copy/paste would do the same for your sermon notes. I move through a text verse-by-verse & like to have the Scripture displayed so the congregation can see in context what I'm talking about. It'd be easy in a non-linear projection app to click over to your note & then back to the Scripture (you'd need to build a slide for each note, however, as there's not much room on a slide even with a 5' screen in the sanctuary, when the text is big enough for folks to see it easiliy--usually about 20pt).

Hope this rambling helps you...
