Easy Worship
EasyWorship is designed to easily display songs, scriptures, videos, and alerts to your congregation with little or no distractions. This is accomplished by utilizing a video graphics card with two outputs. One video signal is sent from the first output to the working monitor at the computer. The second output is sent to the projector and to the congregation. This allows the operator to control all aspects of the service and only show the congregation what they need to see for effective worship.
