Livestream Service Suit 1.4
Version 1.4 - Christmas Special
Bringing all the latest and greatest features to Integrated Presenter! This update should drop in time for Christmas, giving you all the extra presentation and media features you wished were there already!
Integrated Presenter:
New Aux Media Player
Integrated Presenter now ships with a spare media player (will play mp4, but has no video output). This is external to the presentation and can play audio asynchronously to any media used in the main presentation. This should enable playing backing tracks for live performance or playing background music for the main slideshow.
Fixed Slide Pool
The 4 slide pool sources now work like you always thought they did. With 2 modes, insert or replace - these slides can be used on the fly. They are dynamically added to the presentation for playout according to the selected take mode.
We've also improved the loading for slide pool slides. If the slide was originally generated by Slide Creator and named appropriately Integrated Presenter will auto-detect the slide type.
Skip Slide Mode
Integrated Presenter was built around slide-drive-video mode, and there's always been 'normal' mode. Now introducing: skip mode!
In skip mode, clicking next/prev won't change the main output slide. Instead the presentation will track a 'virtual current slide' based on your next/prev commands. Upon exiting skip mode, the next/prev commands will drive to the 'virtual next/previous' slide, and then resync the presentation on the new location.
This should be helpful for fixing out of order slides/ skipping slides we no-longer need.
Experimental - New PreCue Main Display
To help fix the issue where video playout doesn't pre-cue and instead will go to air unloaded we've begun the changes required under the hood to enable this. The Presentation display window now has 3 media players that should have the current, next and prev slide pre-loaded.
This hasn't appeared to fix the video issue (perhaps because of a limitation in WPF). More investigation is underway on this front.
