PowerPoint

Show LiveSunday captions alongside PowerPoint using a browser or OBS.

PowerPoint doesn't natively render live web content as a transparent overlay, but you can easily show LiveSunday captions alongside your presentation using one of two approaches.

What you need

Your overlay URL from the LiveSunday dashboard (Captions → your link → copy overlay URL).


Option A: Second screen (simplest)

Use this if your display setup has a separate screen for captions (e.g. a side monitor, confidence monitor, or a secondary projector).

Open the overlay in a browser

On the computer running PowerPoint, open your overlay URL in Chrome or Edge. Drag this browser window to your secondary display and make it full screen (F11).

Run your presentation normally

Present using PowerPoint on your primary display. The caption overlay will run in the background on the secondary screen, independently.

Start your LiveSunday stream

Start the stream from your dashboard. Captions will appear on the secondary screen while your slides show on the primary.


Option B: Composite captions via OBS

Use this if you want captions overlaid on top of your slides in your video stream.

Add your overlay URL as a Browser Source in OBS

Follow the OBS guide to add your overlay URL as a browser source in your OBS scene.

Capture your PowerPoint window

In OBS, add a Window Capture or Display Capture source to bring your PowerPoint slideshow into the scene.

Layer the caption overlay on top

Position the browser source (captions) above the PowerPoint capture in the Sources panel. The transparent overlay will sit on top of your slides in the final output.

Send the OBS output to your display or stream

Route the OBS virtual camera to your projector, use OBS as your streaming encoder, or output to a monitor via capture card.

Best for streaming

Option B gives you a single composited output — ideal if you're broadcasting your service online and want captions visible in the recording.

Presenter View

If you're using PowerPoint's Presenter View, ensure your Slideshow display is on the correct monitor. The browser window for captions should be on a different output than the one you're reading from.
