The questions churches actually ask

Yes — free to download, free to use, no account, no subscription, no limit on screens or translations. It was written for one church and given away because a church should not have to choose between a projector and a licence fee.

Donations may be accepted one day to cover hosting. The software itself stays free.

No. It was written for a congregation with one projector, one laptop and a volunteer who learns the software on the morning they first use it. Everything about it is aimed at that person rather than at a production team.

Share it freely — please do. It is meant to be passed around churches. The program itself should not be modified and redistributed as your own; if you need something it does not do, ask and it may simply get built.

A member of a Romanian Pentecostal congregation in Australia who needed a projector that could show two languages properly, and could not find one. Every feature in it came from a real Sunday morning.

Windows 10 or 11, and a second screen for the projector. A touch monitor is ideal but not required — mouse and keyboard work fully.

It is designed for 1920×1080 and supported down to 1366×768. It starts in well under a second and holding a verse on screen costs nothing.

No. Everything runs from a local database on the PC. The only time the internet is used is when you choose to download extra translations.

This matters more than it sounds — church wifi has a habit of failing at exactly the wrong moment.

Yes, and this is the point of it. Nothing appears on the projector until you project a verse, and Esc gives the screen straight back to whatever was there — a video, another program, the desktop.

There is no black slide, because the app never needs to sit on the screen showing nothing.

Three taps, or type mat 3 16 and press Enter. Internally, selecting and projecting a verse takes about four milliseconds — the whole reference index sits in memory and only the verse text is read from disk.

Type the words. If what you enter is not a reference, the search box searches the text of the verses instead and lists what it finds.

Yes — that is what it was built for. Two translations, one above the other, in either order, each with its own font, colour, size and optional background band. Swap the order mid-service for a visiting speaker without opening Settings.

As many as the PC has. Each screen is configured separately: both languages, the first alone, or the second alone, and which one goes on top. The main projector can carry Romanian over English while a foyer screen carries English alone, from the same tap.

Yes, over NDI — and NDI is its own output rather than a copy of a screen, with its own languages, resolution and colours. Set its background to transparent and the verse is sent with real alpha, so it lays over live video with no chroma key.

NDI needs the free NDI runtime installed. Without it the app says so and carries on normally.

Cornilescu 1924 (Romanian) and the King James Version (English) are included. From there, one click downloads every freely redistributable Bible in a language you name — 29 complete English Bibles, 21 across German, Spanish, French and Italian.

Modern copyrighted translations such as NKJV, ESV and NASB are not included, because no free licence exists for them. See credits and licensing for the honest position on each one.

If you have the file, very likely yes — it reads JSON, Zefania XML, OSIS XML, USFM and SoftProjector modules. Drop it in the project's ZIP folder and rebuild the index.

If a publisher grants permission but wants their text protected, it can be shipped encrypted and non-exportable, credited on screen.
