EasyWorship is designed for extended desktop display. That means you can have a monitor that contains only the control screen for EasyWorship and another monitor, like a projector or TV that displays the output for the audience, and, or the foldback content for people on the stage. 

Basic Hardware Requirements for Extended Desktop

1. A single video card with two or three video outputs that supports two or three extended desktops. (NVIDIA RTX Video Card Recommended)
2. A laptop with a video output connection. (VGA, DVI or HDMI) (NVIDIA RTX Video Card Recommended)
