system requirements



We want to make sure you to have the best experience possible, so we've compiled a list of system requirements to ensure your computer will run EasyWorship. Before you buy a new computer, please try EasyWorship on your current system. If the software performs fast enough for your needs, there may not be a need to buy a new computer, but if EasyWorship performs slowly or video playback is choppy, it may be time to upgrade or replace your computer.

  • Desktop computers require two or more video outputs are required in order to project EasyWorship content using Windows Extended Desktop.
  • Laptop computers require the laptop screen and one output in order to project EasyWorship content using Windows Extended Desktop.
  • Some laptops with NVIDIA GTX graphics cards will only have one video output, preventing them from supporting Alpha channel or Foldback.
  • To check the hardware specifications of your computer, follow these steps:


    1. Click on the Windows Start Logo button in the bottom left corner of your screen and type dxdiag.
    2. Open the DxDiag app (if you see a prompt, click Yes) and you'll see the CPU and RAM information on the System tab and the Video Card information will be located on the Display tabs.


Video Capture Devices:



 A capture video capture device is hardware that allows you to bring a video signal into the computer for recording, editing, or rebroadcast. Capture devices will connect to your computer via USB or a slot inside the computer. Most commonly, a camera or another video device will connect to the capture device.  EasyWorship will then rebroadcast the video that the capture card receives, adding other content such as text.


We have tested & verified the following video capture devices will work with EasyWorship.
