CueCam Presenter features a big pink “Play” button that you can use to start and navigate your presentation.

Before you start it looks like this:

Here’s a very short presentation:

When you first press the Start button, the Virtual Camera and Dashboard are revealed. This lets you adjust your Main Camera and audio settings if you need to.

The text of the pink button changes to preview the next card’s content and reveals the “Stop” button to the right.

Clicking the button takes us to the next card and shows any attached shares, triggers or slide content.

When you reach the last card, the pink bar changes to become the “End Presentation” button.

Cards with bullet points

If you have a card with bullet points, the big pink button changes to reveal these bullets one at a time.

Here we have landed on a card with bullets and the pink button changes to show “Next Bullet: First thing”.

Clicking the button reveals the first bullet and changes to show “Next Bullet: Second thing”

When all bullets have been revealed, the button changes to show “Next Card” and will continue to the next card when clicked.

Keyboard shortcuts

You can use the shortcuts ⌥⌘→ and ⌥⌘← to navigate your script a CueCam window is focused.

Stream Deck

With CueCam’s Stream Deck plugin installed, you can add the Next button.

On a Stream Deck, the button will update while you are presenting.

Start:

Next Card:

Next Bullet Point:

End Presentation:

Here’s the recommended configuration for a Stream Deck Foot Pedal.

How to request new features for CueCam Presenter

Deep Link

You can trigger the “Next” action with a deep link by calling the url cuecam://next from any other application.

You can test this by pasting it into Notes (and pressing space to make it into a link).

Click the link and CueCam will navigate to the next card.

Considerations

CueCam can only present one document at a time but the Next action is a global behaviour. This means that you may sometimes need to intervene to make sure the correct presentation will run, if multiple presentations are loaded, by clicking the “Start” button in the correct window.

If you trigger a “Jump To Doc” action then the End Presentation action will be replaced with a Jump Back action at the end of the jumped-to doc.

CueCam’s teleprompter window is designed to be used with a connected teleprompter device like an Elgato Prompter, or a Glide Gear teleprompter with a Liliput monitor or iPad running Duet.

Once set up correctly, a teleprompter will appear to your Mac as an extra display.

You can reveal CueCam’s teleprompter window with the toolbar button.

The teleprompter window has various functions.

1. Your camera preview
2. Your teleprompter
3. Audio level of your virtual mic (using LUFS)
4. Presentation navigation and recording controls.
5. Source selector (more on this below)

Drag it to the teleprompter’s display to continue. For best results, make it full-screen.

Changing the position

You can drag the teleprompter to a different position if you need to.

Changing the width and font size

Hovering over the teleprompter text gives you more controls.

Below we see:

1. Font size - click the big and small A buttons to change the text size.
2. Max width - drag this bar left and right to change the maximum display width.

The teleprompter area will always take the minimum possible size based on the currently-displayed text.

Audio monitoring

Your audio meter should be in the green for a good -23 LUFS signal.

If you get too loud, you’ll see a warning in your teleprompter.

Alternative sources

If you want to use this window for your remote video calls, you can select your Zoom, Teams or Meet window from the selector at the top.

Alternatively you can use the “Transparent Window” option. The teleprompter window always stays on top of other windows so this way you can drag any other windows you need onto your teleprompter and keep the CueCan’s HUD on top of everything else. Here it is dragged on top of Ecamm Live’s Program window.

2. Share this window in Zoom

This will have the added benefit of making text sharper, although your camera video frame rate may suffer.

With CueCam Presenter you can build scripts based on cue cards.

What is CueCam Presenter?

When you run your presentation with a device running Shoot connected, you’ll see your teleprompter notes on the device’s screen.

If the text is too small you can pinch to change its size.
