Hello all,
Here is my idea/proof of concept for a new renderer for OpenLP. I came up
with this idea because I noticed that OpenLP was visibly slower at
switching between verses than my church's previous lyrics presentation
software (an ancient copy of EasyWorship likely running on top of
DirectX). I reasoned that it might be worth looking into QGraphicsView,
which is backed by OpenGL (as far as I know). It might be faster with
minimal effort.
This is by no means more than a proof of concept, and I plan to try some
other ideas.
You can get the code from here: https://github.com/ldeks/SongRenderer
renderer.py is the main concept, but you can look at graphicsScene.py, too,
if you want to.
You can also watch the attached YouTube video, where I demonstrate it:

Thanks so much!
Laura
