PROPRESENTER 6 VIDEO PLAYBACK ISSUES PASSWORD

This emulates the old Pro6 Master-Control module.

You can optionally configure a second connection to a 'Follower' ProPresenter 7 computer to have the module automatically forward slide trigger and clears actions to the Follower as you click on slides (or use clear actions) on the main ProPresenter computer (The Leader). We will continue to investigate a fix with RenewedVision (or a better workaround). You will no longer be able to display them on buttons. Doing so will remove the performance impact (random lag when changing slides) but will stop updating the dynamic variables: remaining_slides, total_slides or presentation_name. To work around this, there is now a new option called 'Send Presentation Info Requests To ProPresenter' in the module configuration where you can optionally turn that off. Pro7 users: Currently there is a noticeable performance impact within ProPresenter 7 itself when companion sends messages to Pro7 to track info about the current presentation. At the time of writing this module, there is a bug in ProPresenter 6 where if you choose to enter a Port number for the stage display app - it will actually ignore it and use the 'main' network port you recorded in step 8 above. If you chose to also enable the stage display app option in ProPresenter preferences (so your StreamDeck can display 'Video Countdown' timers) then you can also select 'Yes' for the configuration field 'Connect to StageDisplay (Only required for video countdown timer)' and enter the stage display password.

Now you have all the info you need to go to the ProPresenter Companion module configuration and enter the IP address of the computer running ProPresenter as well as the ProPresenter port number and controller password that you took note of from ProPresenter network preferences. Configure the ProPresenter module in Companion This is because a wired network connection is typically more reliable and has better latency - which is good for remote control. If the computers running ProPresenter and Companion are separate computers and they have the option of using either a wireless or a wired network connection, then it is recommended to use a wired network connection whenever possible. If you want to connect to ProPresenter on the same computer that you are running Companion on, you can use the special looback IP address of 127.0.0.1 (which is the default setting) Use your knowledge of networking (or Google how) to get the IP address of the computer running ProPresenter. You can control ProPresenter on any computer within the same network, you just need to know the ProPresenter computer IP address. Get the IP address of the computer running ProPresenter
