On today’s ChurchTechCast.com Q & A, Answers to church tech questions on a second display, the triplehead2go, and Jans vista…again

Here are the latest questions:

Hi Paul, I saw one of your your tutorials on ProPresenter 6. Thank you for putting that up.

 I successfully plugged in a 2nd monitor (7″ display monitor) to my macbook pro while testing my newly purchased ProPresenter 6. But rather than seeing the ‘Output’ feed on the connected monitor all i see is the desktop wallpaper! Instead, I see another window pops up on the Macbook pro whenever i activate the ‘display’ button from ProPresenter showing the output- while the 7″ monitors keeps the wallpaper image. What am i doing wrong Please?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Hello Paul!

I have a quick question for you. I’m using ProPresenter 5 with 1 60in Flat screen connected with a mini-display port to hdmi cord. I would like to add another 60in flat screen and a small 32 in stage display using the Matrox Triple HeadToGo T2g-D3D-IF. So far i’ve been using a 2012 macbook pro maxed out with a TB SSD and 16GB of ram with splendid results. I just want to make sure Ill be able to support two more screens with the Matrox Triple Head2Go. Any suggestions are welcome.

Paul,

[H]ow [do I] control a Jans/Vista lighting console from a ProPresenter 6 presentation.

I did exchange some emails with the ProPresenter head guy and he has made it clear that the communications module will only ever be available on Mac.  We are a Windows shop so I’m not really very happy with this position. 

So, what alternatives might there be to make this happen?
