VideoPsalm

So many features for so little cost! Can't beat it.

Vorteile:

VideoPsalm is an awesome piece of software. As a fledgling church, we were looking for presentation software that was free since we had no budget. I tried a few different ones but ended up with VideoPsalm. There is a learning curve to get started but once you get the hang of it, it's incredibly easy to use. I can't think of a feature I've needed that it couldn't do. Video background, song imports, multiple import formats (PPT, PDF, etc), and more. Support is also great. I've emailed the author a few times and always get a prompt response. If you're looking for church presentation software, even if you have a huge budget, check out VideoPsalm and you'll love it.

Nachteile:

Some quirkiness in the UI that you have to learn but only minor things. Once you get the hang of it, they don't even matter.

VideoPsalm 27

Kommentare: Since I abandoned some old software to adopt VideoPsalm I have enjoyed my worship experience both at home and at church. I was actually shocked that there are some people so devoted to Christian service that they would dedicate their time and money to providing such an excellent presentation software for free. God bless such an effort.

Vorteile:

That it is free yet it is all you would need in a worship presentation software.

Nachteile:

If there was an easier and smoother way to integrate instruments to the lyrics of common songs we could use it comfortably in the absence of the church instrumentalist. Also if there could be a way of speeding up the loading on even slower windows we would appreciate. There is definitely a need for iOS version of VideoPsalm

easy to use

Vorteile:

easy to use and simple, it is mainly a complete software, it is Compatible with PowerPoint.

Nachteile:

it provides only the basic features for presentation

LOOK NO FURTHER... REALLY !

Kommentare: We also use this in home groups and outreach ministries where a hefty desktop is not available. Some our our students use this program for their school presentations.

Vorteile:

I have tried a lot of free "worship presentation" software and this is the best so far. We have been using this since ver 1.13 (2013). Ver 1.22 is very stable. From time to time I check my other "contender presentation software" to see if they have become better than VideoPsalm but they have NOT. I can still use the program even with a 2014 IBM T500 C2D laptop - I turn off lyrics shading and use smaller video files (convert HD files to 720p with lower scan rates). On our main desktop (gaming class), I can use all the features and larger video files. The ability setup a presentation at home, save it in a USB drive then run it in the church computer is my favorite feature. You can also operate the program with a presentation remote control clicker.

Nachteile:

Looking forward to the next version with a confidence monitor / stage output feature.

Display any song, any Bible verse, in any language, over any background, in a second

Kommentare: Since I use VideoPsalm, I have again the time to great the people at church.
Everything is setup in a few minutes.

Vorteile:

VideoPsalm gives access to most of the predefined songs, and most of Bible translations in my language (and in dozens of other languages): it gets me running in minutes. I most like the song search feature: extremely fast and it doesn't care about punctuation and accents. I can type-in a new song in a few clicks. I can prepare the agenda at home and get the exactly same presentation at church. And everything is free.

Nachteile:

The startup-time was a bit long at the start. Each new version starts faster though (I am with 1.27).
