Ability to Purchase Bibles from Publishers for use in FreeShow

[Timothy-Rocha]

Hi Team! Would it be possible to have a page similar to this one below from ProPresenter that lets you buy downloadable Bibles or licenses to use offline? I have found some of the versions we need through the methods currently provided like Beblia, but I've yet to find Spanish NTV and I'm also not sure if the XML files I was able to find from Beblia are up to date. If there was a way to pay for Bibles that are provided directly from the publisher for use in FreeShow that would be great.

Would be nice, will see about this.

In the meantime you can check out this great store: https://www.ajaytheceo.com/digital/bibles

Most of the Bible's from here aren't installing like the NIV version

@Zumalexy Looks like most are formatted using "Zefania", but the NIV uses the "OpenSong" format!

What about using the biblegateway.com api? https://www.biblegateway.com/api/documentation My pastor insists on using the NIV 2011, and I've only been able to find the 1984 version. If it's a copyright issue, maybe make it available if we paste in our own access token to be able to use it.

@jerm00 Good suggestion, but I don't think I will add another Bible API, but is the NIV version here the correct one?:

No that’s 1984, I checked. Thanks for the suggestion. I did find it (2011) in a .sqlite3 file, is that something worthwhile to feature request as an importer? I tried a converter (sqlite3 to xml) from someone here on GitHub but I couldn’t get it to convert to something readable by freeshow

@jerm00 You can probably try this: https://github.com/jamesdoc/BibleConvertor

@jerm00 I sent you an email with my [scraping] attempt on the NIV 2011 in the OpenSong format. Let me know if that works or if you need other version(s).

How do we display a slide from 2 Bibles at the same time?
