We choose LiveWorship

ProPresenter 4 came out about the same time as LiveWorship for Intel Macs. It looks like it will be excellent. However, not all features were implemented yet, and it did not appear to be on feature parity to LiveWorship yet.

MediaShout would have required a version of virtualization software not available at the time of our purchase, and a copy of Microsoft XP or Vista. Likewise for EasyWorship

FYI
LiveWorship is developed by a telecommunications company out of Chilicothe, OH.

It is actively developed.

It is a commercial product programmed in the latest version of RealBasic.

RealBasic didn’t release their progamming software capable of delivering a “Universal Binary” for Mac until September 2006. LiveWorship began updating to a Universal Binary at that time.

Our Mac can run LiveWorship under “Rosetta” with a few feature limitations and slight performance hit. One of the feature limitations is the new DVD cueing feature.

Update
LiveWorship was released as a Universal Binary in January of 2007. We had partial DVD cueing in the first version and full DVD cueing has been included in the updates since.

Powerpoint Import
Powerpoint import does not work on Intel Macs at this time. It is not a LiveWorship issue as much as it is a Microsoft Office issue. Microsoft’s Powerpoint continues to run under Rosetta technology at this time, and as such is unavailable to LiveWorship. LiveWorship has created a stand-alone program to import powepoint presentations. It is located in the LiveWorship application folder. You can drag and drop a powerpoint file and it will be imported as a LiveWorship presentation.

Copyright
They are very careful about copyright issues. Because of this, you can import CCLI song downloads, but they do not allow you to directly interface with CCLI’s website (though other software does this, CCLI has told LiveWorship they don’t like it, and LiveWorship is respecting their wishes until something can be worked out).

Bible Translations

  • There are a number of Bible translations available.
  • There are two NLT version available. Some verses are quite different. Currently only one version is available for LiveWorship. Pastor Mike’s version may be the early version, so double check verses when possible.
  • They are currently working on obtaining the Holman Christian Standard Version (one of the versions Pastor Mike often uses).

Additional Versions may require additional fees to activate due to copywrite issues. Included versions have their fees built into the purchase price of LiveWorship.
