Choosing Backgrounds Size & Format

Tony — Wed, 03 Aug 2011 17:24:30 +0000

Learn how to choose the correct motion backgrounds for your worship software. This information table is extremely helpful in understanding your options.

Choosing Background Sizes

There are two sizes you can choose from when it comes to worship backgrounds. The sizes really are aspect ratios and not pixel dimensions. There are 4:3 and 16:9 ratios. This determines the width and hight of your projector screen and area of coverage. This also determines your worship backgrounds both motion and still. For motion backgrounds we refer to 4:3 as 480p and 16:9 as 720p.

4:3 aspect ratio

This is the original and still widely used screen dimension. With this screen you would want to choose 480p (640×480) for motion backgrounds . Choosing these sizes for 4:3 aspect screens ensures there is no stretching of the video on the screen and it will fill the screen as expected. This motion backgrounds screen size is available in MOV h.264 & WMV formats.

16:9 aspect ratio

This is a very popular screen size today. With a wider screen you have more screen real estate to work with and opens the door to HD movie play back. If you are using motion backgrounds you should use 1080p (1920×1080) or 720p (1280×720) motion clips. Using these sizes will eliminate any image stretching or distortion. This motion background screen size is available in MOV h.264 and WMV formats.

HD Motion Backgrounds are large video files and should only use MOV h.264 encoding or WMV advanced encoding to preserve video quality in playback.

As mentioned in my last post the new EasyWorship will have the ability to run on both platforms Apple Mac OS X and Windows.

The interfaces will be similar to each other and will still incorporate the same flow as the EasyWorship 2009 version. Although there is not much information yet on the new release SoftTouch Development released a screenshot of the new Mac OS X interface. AWESOME!

New EasyWorship 2011 Update

Tony — Mon, 14 Feb 2011 22:42:30 +0000

There is some very recent news on the new EasyWorship software. Not sure if it will be named EasyWorship 2011 because SoftTouch Inc is doing a survey to find another name. I like EasyWorship 2 personally. The new features are not clear yet but it will be a multi platform product. This will work on both Apple Mac OS X and Windows systems. What a great idea given most larger Churches have several ministries and some ministries might use Windows while the main sanctuary would use Apple Macs.

2) An upgrade from version 2007 or earlier – $149.00
