Managing Bibles in OpenLP is a relatively simple process. There are also
|
||||
converters provided to get data from other formats into OpenLP.
|
||||
|
||||
Bible Importer
|
||||
==============
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
package, you may be able to convert your existing database to work in OpenLP
|
||||

|
||||
You may also enter the Bible Importer by clicking the :guilabel:`Import Icon:`

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
.. image:: pics/bibleimport02.png
|
||||
|
||||
Click on the file folder icon to choose the file of the Bible database you
|
||||
want to import. See the following sections for information on the different
|
||||
formats that OpenLP will import.
|
||||
|
||||
Importing from OpenLP Version 1
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Converting from OpenLP Version 1 is a simple process. First you will need to
|
||||
locate your Version 1 Bibles.
|
||||
|
||||
Windows XP::
|
||||
|
||||
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\openlp.org\Data\Bibles\
|
||||
|
||||
Windows Vista / Windows 7::
|
||||
|
||||
C:\ProgramData\openlp.org\Data\Bibles\
|
||||
|
||||
OpenLP Version 1 Bibles have the `.bible` file extension. After selecting
|
||||
all of the OpenLP Version 1 Bibles you want to convert, click :guilabel:`Next`
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/bibleimportdetails1.png
|
||||
|
||||
Enter your Bible name and copyright details. Click :guilabel:`Next`. It may
|
||||
take some time to convert your Bibles so please be patient.
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/bibleimportfinished1.png
|
||||
|
||||
When the import has finished click :guilabel:`Finish` and you should be
|
||||
ready to use your OpenLP Version 1 Bibles.
|
||||
|
||||
Importing OSIS Bibles
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
**About OSIS Formatted Bibles**
|
||||
|
||||
OSIS is a format intended to provide a common format for Bibles. More
|
||||
information can be found out here: http://www.bibletechnologies.net/
|
||||
|
||||
If you have any software installed that is part of the Sword Project
|
||||
http://www.crosswire.org/sword/index.jsp it can be easily converted.
|
||||
|
||||
Importing OSIS files is very simple. Select your OSIS Bible file and click
|
||||
:guilabel:`Next`
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/bibleimportdetails1.png
|
||||
|
||||
Enter you Bible name and copyright details. Click :guilabel:`Next`. It may take
|
||||
some time to convert your Bibles so please be patient.
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/bibleimportfinished1.png
|
||||
|
||||
Click :guilabel:`Finish` and you should be ready to use your OpenLP Version
|
||||
1 Bibles.
|
||||
|
||||
You can use the commands below convert Bibles from that software to OSIS format.
|
||||
|
||||
The following commands are used in all platforms and the commands are case
|
||||
sensitive across all platforms. To convert a Bible using Command Prompt in
|
||||
Windows or a Terminal in Linux or MAC you would type::
|
||||
|
||||
mod2osis biblename > biblename.osis
|
||||
|
||||
For example: if I wanted to convert a King James Version Bible I would type
|
||||
something similar to this::
|
||||
|
||||
mod2osis KJV > kjv.osis
|
||||
|
||||
You may also wish to dictate a file location for the conversion to place the
|
||||
osis file for example::
|
||||
|
||||
mod2osis KJV > /home/user/bibles/kjv.osis
|
||||
|
||||
Importing OpenSong Bibles
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Converting from OpenSong you will need to locate your bibles database. In the
|
||||
later versions of OpenSong you are asked to define the location of this. The
|
||||
songs will be located in a folder named :guilabel:`Bibles`. This folder should
|
||||
contain files with all your bibles in them without a file extension. (file.xmms).
|
||||
When you have located this folder you will need to select the bible from the
|
||||
folder.
|
||||
|
||||
You may also import downloaded bibles from OpenSong. The process is the same,
|
||||
except you will need to extract the bible from a zip file. This is usually done
|
||||
by right clicking on the downloaded file and select `Extract` or `Extract Here`.
|
||||
|
||||
After selecting the OpenSong Bibles you want to convert, click :guilabel:`Next`
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/bibleimportdetails1.png
|
||||
|
||||
Enter your Bible name and copyright details. Click :guilabel:`Next`. It may
|
||||
take some time to convert your Bibles so please be patient.
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/bibleimportfinished1.png
|
||||
|
||||
When the import has finished then click :guilabel:`Finish` and you should now be
|
||||
ready to use your OpenSong Bibles.
|
||||
|
||||
Importing Web Download Bibles
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
**About Web Download**
|
||||
|
||||
OpenLP provides a Web Download method to import Bibles when you do not have a
|
||||
locally installed Bible available. The Web Download method registers the Bible
|
||||
in OpenLP like the other bibles only it downloads the verses as you need them.
|
||||
This import is not meant to be used as your sole source for Bibles, but rather
|
||||
as another option and does require an internet connection.
|
||||
|
||||
To use the web download feature select web download from the import wizard.
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/bibleimport01.png
|
||||
|
||||
You can select from several options of location to download from and also
|
||||
what Bible translation you need. You will probably want to choose the location
|
||||
from where you get the best performance or has the translation you need.
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/webbible1.png
|
||||
|
||||
You can also select a proxy server if needed from the `Proxy Server` tab. Your
|
||||
network administrator will know if this is necessary, in most cases this will
|
||||
not be needed.
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/webbibleproxy1.png
|
||||
|
||||
After selecting your download location and the Bible you wish to use, click
|
||||
:guilabel:`Next` When your import is completed click :guilabel:`Finish`
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/biblewebcomplete.png
|
||||
|
||||
You should now be ready to use the web bible.
|
||||
|
||||
Importing CSV formatted Bibles
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
If you have a Bible in .csv format OpenLP can import it. CSV Bibles will
|
||||
consist of two files a `books` file and a `verse` file.
|
||||
|
||||
Select CSV from the list of Bible types to import.
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/bibleimport02.png
|
||||
|
||||
You are now ready to select your .csv files. You will need to select both your
|
||||
books and verse file location.
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/csvimport1.png
|
||||
|
||||
After you have selected the file locations you can click :guilabel:`Next`
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/bibleimportfinished1.png
|
||||
|
||||
Click :guilabel:`Finish` and you should now be ready to use your imported CSV

Configuring OpenLP
|
||||
==================
|
||||
|
||||
OpenLP has many options you can configure to suit your needs. Most options are
|
||||
self-explanatory and we will quickly review them.
|
||||
|
||||
To configure OpenLP, click on :menuselection:`Settings --> Configure OpenLP...`
|
||||
|
||||
The plugins you have activated will have configure options. If all the plugins
|
||||
are activated there will be 9 tabs across the top you can configure.
|
||||
|
||||
General Tab
|
||||
===========
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: pics/configuregeneral.png
|
||||
|
||||
Monitors
|
||||
^^^^^^^^
|
||||
To select the monitor you want to display OpenLP on, click the drop-down box
|
||||
and choose.
|
||||
|
||||
Display if a single screen
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
When this box is selected, you will be able to see your display on a separate
|
||||
window on the monitor you are using. Click the display and push the Esc key
|
||||
on your keyboard to close the display window.
|
||||
|
||||
Application Startup
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
**Show blank screen warning:**
|
||||
|
||||
When this box is selected, you will get a warning when opening OpenLP that the
|
||||
output display has been blanked. You may have blanked it and shut down the
|
||||
program and this will warn you it is still blanked.
|
||||
|
||||
**Automatically open the last service:**
|
||||
|
||||
When this box is selected, OpenLP will remember the last service you were
|
||||
working on when you closed the program.
|
||||
|
||||
**Show the splash screen:**
|
||||
|
||||
When this box it selected, the OpenLP logo will be displayed in the center of
|
||||
the screen until the program opens. This is useful to know if the program is
|
||||
opening.
|
||||
|
||||
Application Settings
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
**Prompt to save before starting a new service**
|
||||
|
||||
When this box is selected, OpenLP will prompt you to save the service you are
|
||||
working on before starting a new service.
|
||||
|
||||
**Automatically preview next item in service**
|
||||
|
||||
When this box is selected, the next item in the Service Manager will show in the
|
||||
Preview pane.
|
||||
|
||||
**Slide loop delay**
|
||||
|
||||
This setting is the time delay in seconds if you want to continuously loop
|
||||
images, verses, or lyrics. This control timer is also accessible on the "live
|
||||
toolbar.
|
||||
|
||||
CCLI Details
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
**CCLI number**
|
||||
|
||||
If you subscribe to CCLI, this box is for your License number. This number is
|
||||
also displayed in the Song Footer box.
|
||||
|
||||
Display Position
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
This setting will default to your computer monitor. It will override the output
|
||||
display combo box. If your projector display is different, select the Override
|
||||
display position and make the changes here to match your projector display. This
|
||||
option also comes in handy when you have the "Display if a single screen" box
|
||||
selected. You can make the display smaller so it does not cover your whole
|
||||
screen.

Remote Tab

.. image:: pics/configureremotes.png
|

|

OpenLP gives you the ability to control your Service Manager from a remote
|
||||
computer through a web browser. This was written actually for a nursery or day
|
||||
care where a "come and get YYYY" message could be triggered remotely. It has
|
||||
now become an interface to control the whole service remotely.
|
||||
|
||||
An example of one use for this would be if you have a missionary with a
|
||||
PowerPoint presentation, it may be easier for that missionary to remotely
|
||||
connect to your projection computer and change the slides when he wants to.
|
||||
|
||||
To use this feature you will need to be on a network, wired or wireless, know
|
||||
the IP address of the projection computer and enter that IP address and port
|
||||
number in the remote computer's web browser.
|
||||
|
||||
To find your projection computer's IP address for Windows, open Command Prompt
|
||||
and type in “ipconfig” (without quotations), press Enter key and your IP
|
||||
address will show. In Linux, open Terminal and type “ifconfig” (without
|
||||
quotations), and use the IP address after “inet addr:” The IP address will
|
||||
always have a format of xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where x is one to three digits long.
|
||||
|
||||
Server Settings
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Serve on IP address: Put your projection computer's IP address here.
|
||||
|
||||
Port Number
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
You can use the default port number or change it to another number.
|
||||
|
||||
With these two settings written down, open a web browser in the remote computer
|
||||
and enter the IP address followed by a colon and then the port number, ie:
|
||||
192.168.1.104:4316 then press enter. You should now have access to the OpenLP
|
||||
Controller. If it does not come up, you either entered the wrong IP address,
|
||||
port number or one or both computer's are not connected to the network.
