I was able to connect last week to our church projector and OpenLP automatically was able to display the live lyrics on the projector. This week I could not get the lyrics to show up on the projector. My desktop shows up on the projector, so I know that my connection is ok. Please help.

    Firstly version? The current public release 2.0.5?
    If we say, more precisely, getting output from OpenLP — not just live lyrics — onto the projection screen then there are a number of things to setup/do. These steps are done with OpenLP 2.0.5 and Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan).
    1. In Mac System Preferences | Mission Control make sure option 'Displays have separate Spaces' is unticked
    2. [Particularly if connecting via HDMI] Make sure external projector is connected to powered on Mac before turning on projector.
    3. Turn on projector (external display, I did all these steps connecting to a HDMI Full HD - 1920x1080 monitor with a MacBook Air, a projector will be same steps) you should see the Mac screen on both the MacBook and projector
    4. In System Preferences | Displays in the Arrangement tab make sure Mirroring is not selected so you get the projector's full display. You will then have, essentially, two screens. One on your Mac and one on the external display.
    5. In System Preferences | Displays in the Arrangement tab make sure the menu bar is on the MacBook screen, not the external display (projector).
    6. Only then start OpenLP
    7. In OpenLP go to Preferences | General, Monitors section of dialog box
    8. In the 'Select monitor for output display' drop-down list you should see 'Screen 1 (primary)' and 'Screen 2'. Screen 2 will be the projector, choose it. Click OK.
    And you should see output for songs go to the projector screen when you choose a song/run a service and send the song to live output.
    Good luck!
  • Thank you! I am running OpenLP 2.0.5 and OS X 10.10.05 I think the difference from week to week was having the projector running too early in the sequence. I will try to follow the order that you suggested. Again, thank you!

    Thank you yukonderek for taking the time to provide these detailed steps. I was configuring my Macbook Pro and OpenLP software in preparation for the Sunday service and this helped me to get past a major hurdle.
    God Bless you!
  • Hi, I've just downloaded OpenLP with Windows 10 and connected to two display monitors. The first Sunday, it worked ok but the next Sunday, after system updates were automatically installed to the computer, the lyrics would no longer display and some features such as right click to change a bible verse in a service to a slide would no longer work. All my connections were correct to the best of my knowledge. Any suggestions? Thanks!
  • Hi userjen,
    A general rule of thumb is to always connect the projector and set up dual monitors before starting OpenLP. Maybe just go through your settings and check that everything is still correct?
