My problem is I was doing a presentation worship, when finished I switched the projector to the video mode,(this is the first time I used the projector with SongBeamer) to show a video using a video / recorder unit. When I switched the projector back to the computer mode the Logo and Bible scriptures were twice the size and we could not read the scriptures. I compiled the presentation with Windows 7 & Office 2007, then I compiled it with Windows XP & 2007, no difference at the end results. I went back today to try to fix the problem, the only way it will work is if I reboot the PC then everything goes back to normal, but that takes to long for it to reboot. When we were using power point that never happened, so I know it has something to do with SongBeamer, hope you have a fix for this? Thanks for your response, Ron.

We use a NEC projector at our church and our PC runs on Windows XP, with a 2.93 cpu, and 2GB of ram and using very little resource's at presentation time.

It could be that your projector did not recognize the image size correctly. In that case you can show the test screen (in SongBeamer: Presentation->Test Screen). Then press the "auto setup", "auto correction" or ... button on your projector or remote control.
You could also try to avoid that SongBeamer shows a black screen when you switch back to the PC.

I did the "Auto Button" on the projector remote and it did change ,but when I did the transition to video then again computer it became distorted. But now I remembered that you said don't use the black background, well my Logo is on a black background, I changed it to a white background and that cured the problem. Thanks again OH! great Kahuna.
