One awesome new feature is the timer showing not only how long you’ve been reading, but with a feature only found on the most expensive teleprompters, which is the total estimated read time, based on the length of the script and how fast you’re reading through it. All controls for text size, font, line spacing and inverting text for black-on-white display are easily accessible right on the main page – no hunting for preferences or searching through menus. You can also choose to have the eyeline indicator on the left, right or both sides of the prompter window. Is the eyeline indicator a little high or low? Just click on it and drag to reposition – the change is automatically mirrored in the second window. If the talent is not operating the teleprompter, PromptDog offers a second resizable window that can be positioned on a second monitor with perfectly synchronized scrolling so you can operate the prompter for your talent.

For that reason, the mouse scroll wheel is our tool of choice. Indeed, one of the hallmarks of a good presenter is that they will vary the speed (and tone) of delivery to give their presentation a more natural sounding pace. We don’t have speed settings in PromptDog because it’s very rare that the same scroll speed is suitable for the whole duration of a presentation. Note that if you choose a remote without a scroll wheel, you’ll also need to map the UP and DOWN arrow keys to your remote for forward and reverse scroll.
