![]() ![]() This option simply makes the image fit the screen with no regard to the aspect ratio. The aspect ratio of the media is maintained. As you can see below, the logo will be cut off on the top and bottom in order to fill the entire screen. If the image is a different aspect ratio, then cropping will occur on either the top and bottom or the left and right. Scale to Fill expands the image from the center point to fill the entire screen. In this sample, the image first reaches the top and bottom, resulting in pillar boxing. This may result in letter boxing (bars across the top and bottom) or pillar boxing (bars on the left and right). Scale to Fit expands the image from the center point until it hits two edges of the screen. The ProPresenter logo is a different aspect ratio, so it isn't going to fit properly on the screen. In each image, the box with the black outline represents a 16:9 screen. The easiest way to explain what each of these settings does is to simply show you. You can change these two defaults in Preferences under Advanced if you would like them to use different scaling behaviors. By default, Backgrounds use Stretch to Fill and Foregrounds use Scale to Fit. This setting will likely not be needed if you have Manage Media Automatically enabled above.All media in ProPresenter supports three scaling options: Scale to Fit, Scale to Fill, and Stretch to Fill. You can enable this setting by checking the box for Automatically Relink Missing Media Using Alternate Paths and then check any folder paths you wish for the program to use to try and locate missing media. Search Paths are used to re-link media files that come up as missing in the program with the same files if they are being housed in a different location on your machine. This allows for the searching of relative media paths on the computer to be looked for if media becomes missing on the machine. ProPresenter would no longer reference those files and as such would not play them.Īnother option that helps with Media Management is Media Search Paths. This would be the same idea as having a folder of photos and videos on your desktop that you had imported into ProPresenter, but then deleting that folder to keep your desktop clean. Say for instance you imported some photos off of a flash drive, and then you unplugged the flash drive ProPresenter would attempt to reference that file path to play the video/show the photo, but it would not be able to find the actual file, as the location of that media is not accessible (as the flash drive was removed from the machine). With Manage Media Automatically DISABLED, when you import media into ProPresenter it will reference the file path from wherever that file was dragged and dropped or imported into the software. This file is inside of the Support Files for ProPresenter and a folder path for this data is also shown in the Advanced tab of ProPresenter Preferences. Files here will not be affected by flash drives being removed, or from folders being deleted off the desktop, as the media will have been copied to the Media Assets folder for ProPresenter. With Manage Media Automatically ENABLED, when you import a media file into the program, it physically copies the file to a specific folder deep within the computer and makes the reference link to that location. Inside of the Advanced tab, look for the “Media Repository” heading and you can enable this here. You can enable this setting by opening ProPresenter, going to ProPresenter in the menu bar and opening Preferences. There is a setting that can resolve this issue, called Manage Media Automatically. ![]() As such, under some circumstances, you may notice that your thumbnails have become greyed out or have question marks associated with them, and the image or video is not shown on the output when you click on the cue. When ProPresenter imports media, it is actually copying the file path to that file, and creating a reference to it in the software, not actually fully importing the entire file. ![]()
