SongBeamer is a program to create presentations, intended to be used by churches. The program can display, on your monitor or a projector, slides containing lyrics of a song or scripture passages over a nice background. The presentations generated by SongBeamer can even include videos, music, speech or play fragments of a DVD (you will need some additional software to do this). It is even possible to add a PowerPoint presentation as part of your slideshow. It is also possible to display live video feeds by using a webcam attached to your system. Or add a video or flash animation from your hard disk. You can set different transitions, time and effects for each slide.
SongBeamer allows you to use two-monitor systems. This comes in very handy, as you can prepare what your congregation will see on a monitor, and the other one will display the slides you want to show. The program allows you to search for a specific song in your database, by entering a keyword. It is also possible to print sheets with the lyrics of each song.
The trial version of SongBeamer will have the following limitations: every presentation will display a big red X on it and the text "SongBeamer Demo". Every printed song sheet will have the word "DEMO" written on it. You will not be able to export the print preview to a WML file.
