The Web Remote
|
|
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OpenLP gives you the ability to control the :ref:`creating_service` or send an
|
|
|
|
:ref:`alerts` from a remote computer through a web browser. This could be useful
|
|
|
|
for a nursery or daycare to display an :ref:`alerts` message or, use it as an
|
|
|
|
interface to control the whole service remotely by a visiting missionary or
|
|
|
|
worship team leader.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first step is to make sure the Remote plugin is activated. You can accomplish
|
|
|
|
this here: :ref:`plugin_list`. The second step is to configure the settings you
|
|
|
|
will use with your web browser. You can find these instructions and settings
|
|
|
|
here: :ref:`remote_tab`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Open your favorite web browser and type in the Remote URL you found in
|
|
|
|
:ref:`remote_tab`. For this example we will use \http://192.168.0.101:4316 and
|
2011-12-26 21:08:29 +00:00
|
|
|
then press the :kbd:`Enter` key. You will be presented with the home page of the
|
2011-12-23 20:30:19 +00:00
|
|
|
OpenLP Remote.

|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Note:** The buttons Blank, Show, Prev and Next are conveniently located on
|
|
|
|
the top and the bottom of the remote interace to help eliminate scrolling.

|
|
|
|
|
|
Slide Controller
|
|
|
|
----------------
|
|
|

You will find your verses displayed as they appear in the live view and the
|
|
|
|
first verse will be displayed on the projection screen. You can use the
|
|
|
|
:guilabel:`Prev`, :guilabel:`Next` or click on each verse using your mouse to
|
|
|
|
display them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Note:** The remote interface replicates the OpenLP software. Clicking on a
|
|
|
|
single image in the service manager will display immediately. The first image
|
|
|
|
in a group of images and the first slide in a presentation will also be
|
|
|
|
displayed immediately when clicked on in the service manager.
