Ecclesia Lab

Ecclesia Lab: Worship LIVE

Control Worship LIVE, the worship subtitle and presentation app for Mac.

Requires Worship LIVE 2.1 or later.

Setup

Worship LIVE on the same Mac as Companion

Add the connection and leave the settings as they are. There is nothing to turn on in Worship LIVE and no password to enter. The connection turns green as soon as Worship LIVE is running.

Worship LIVE on another computer

1. In Worship LIVE open Settings › Devices › Controller (환경설정 › 기기연결 › 컨트롤러) and turn on Use from another computer (다른 컴퓨터에서 쓰기). The IP address (IP 주소), the port (포트) and the password (비밀번호) appear.
2. In Companion enter them as Target IP, Target Port and Password. The port is 7788 unless it was changed in Worship LIVE.

Both computers must be on the same network.

Presets

Ready-made buttons for everything above: slides, parts, clear, outputs, scenes, prompter layouts, overlays, countdowns (with the remaining time on the button), stage message, audio and playback. The buttons use the same pictures as Worship LIVE and light up with what is live.

The lists of scenes, prompter layouts, overlays, countdowns, parts and tracks appear once Worship LIVE is connected.
