First Steps to a Show with PC Studio

You can project e.g. videos and graphics in all popular formats on your displays. Some example
files come with the supplied DVD. Furthermore, it is possible to display websites, embed audio
files and create shows using the program's editors.

..............................................................................................................................................................................

Program Types

A show can consist of a variety of contents in the form of programs. There are 7 types available for these
programs:

File window

For videos, images, texts, tables

Text window

Editor for short texts (one or more lines)

Video window

Video signal of external devices (webcam, TV...)

Date/time window

Date and time

Time window

Time

Web window

Websites (YouTube, Facebook, Twitter...)

Design window

Effect editor

Depending on the type, several parameters such as background, position, text, play time and effects are
adjustable. For each file type, create a new program window. This window can extend over the entire video
wall or just a section.

The [

Web window

] type is special. Here, the program window changes into an internet browser which can

be operated with the mouse just like a regular browser tab.

Example with the types [
