CCM Launches New Worship Player

WorshipPlayerButton

We just launched our new Worship Player. This is a FMS backed Flash player that includes lyrics so the congregation can learn new songs. This player was built for me a consultant I found on Guru.com. Thanks so much Andrew Pankov for building this for our church. We are launching this player today with three songs, and will be continually expanding this as we move forward.

Check out the Worship Player and let me know what you think!

The Worship Player is based on XML files that our Worship Team puts together. It is a pretty basic format that time stamps a line of lyrics. The player reads the XML file and displays the proper lyric at the specified time.

That's a pretty good idea especially considering teaching congregants new lyrics! Are the lyrics XML files created manually by someone that has to match up each sentence with the appropriate timestamp or is it somehow automated?
