Consider NDI Integration for your application.
This is a limiting factor in me subscribing to Proclaim. If you can consider NDI integration so that output from Proclaim can go into NDI stream, it will be easy to get a feed from Proclaim into livestreaming environment without necessarily getting additional screen as an output for proclaim.

Fantastic Idea! Proclaim has been fantastic for in-person service use, however this has been one of its few limitations for live-streaming. Without NDI capabilities, we have been unable to send a mixed transparent/non-transparent feed to OBS, and we are forced to chroma/luma key, which simply doesn't work with pre-recorded video. NDI integration would benefit a lot of churches especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Specifically please implement this in such a way that we do not have to use any 3rd party software (NewTek Scan Converter) or additional physical monitors. The idea here is that we can flexibly get foregrounds, backgrounds, lower thirds and confidence feeds (maybe even digital signage) streamed natively out to NDI. Take a look at how ProPresenter 7 handles virtual direct NDI screens.

It seems to me this idea really needs to be combined with this other one -- NDI output and the ability to customize it: https://proclaim.uservoice.com/forums/137112-faithlife-proclaim/suggestions/40190551-add-an-dedicated-lower-thirds-output-option

Please add this -- live streaming has become so important and this is the defacto solution to accomplish something now critical to worship presentation software. Apparently ProPresenter and Easy Worship have it and it is one of the few things that makes me wonder if I should switch -- Proclaim works great for me, but using the NDI screen capture app isn't as reliable as native NDI support (the NDI capture app crashes every time I turn a presentation off and back on again and then it has to be pointed to Proclaim again).

Would love this feature asap, would mean that others could help run our live streams.

With the social gathering restrictions due to Covid-19, we have started to stream all of our services. We are still using Proclaim in conjunction with OBS, but now more importantly than ever we need confidence monitors and different outputs to support all this.
NDI would solve a major problem for us needing to send signals to different endpoints, since currently I either need to build a new computer that can have 6 physical monitors plugged into it, or switch to another software which can handle NDI. (Neither option is looking great right now!)
Streaming isn't going to to go away, and this need is only going to get bigger. Please add this as soon as you are able!

Same boat as Kevin and Lance, this would be a great way for me do lower thirds and return the monitor I took from our music office JUST to be able to capture a display.

On the off-chance this gets seen I'm adding all the votes I can. This would be an amazing feature to add, especially in these weird times where churches are all trying to stream as easily and cheaply as possible. This would enable, for example, outputting lower thirds to a switcher or streaming software without the need for another physical display. Even between computers on the same network. NDI is even open source as far as I know. We're using OBS at the moment, and the NDI plugin that's available for it would make my workflow so much easier. Please add this feature!

The issue with Proclaim as it currently stands (using vMix Desktop Capture or similar) is that it requires physical displays to be attached and detected by Windows. This means I need 6 monitors connected to my PC to use all 6 outputs Proclaim currently supports, even if all I want to do is route them to a confidence screen or vMix via NDI (and don't need to see the output on an actual monitor.
Native support for NDI in Proclaim would keep me from switching to the competition.

If you use vmix for your livestream software it is very easy to add Proclaim slides to your video

This would be awesome and help me git rid of using several HDMI splitters and a capture card to grab the slides from proclaim to put into OBS.
