The latest version of ProPresenter 7 will run on any machine that meets the specifications required to run the operating systems we support.

macOS

Minimum: macOS 12.7.4 (Monterey)

Windows

Minimum: Version 1903 (build 18362) of Windows 10

Recommended: Windows 11 (Current build)

The major factors that effect the performance of your particular production are the number of total pixels that are being output by the machine meaning the number of screens you are outputting to, both as audience or stage displays, the resolution of both the source content and the output resolution of that content, and the video compression used.

Recommendations

GPU: If you are outputting to more than 4 HD screens, you should have a dedicated GPU, with the exception of the Apple Silicon Macs, as they have great GPUs integrated. 
Video compression: H264 or H265 (HEVC) at 30mbps or less for HD, 50mbps for 4K; For videos with Alpha channels, ProRes 4444 is recommended.

Sample Configurations

Here are some recommendations for typical outputs As always, you can download the software at no charge to test performance on any computer.

HD (720p or 1080i); 1 Output (with or without Alpha Key), 1 HD Stage Display

• macOS: Any Mac made since 2017 should be able to accomplish this without issue (Intel core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM) Full support for M1 Macs as of the ProPresenter 7.5 update
• Windows 10: Intel i5 processor (or equivalent AMD processor) or better

4K Graphics Outputs:

• macOS: iMac or MacBook Pro with an i7 or i9 processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a dedicated GPU Full support for M1 Macs as of the ProPresenter 7.5 update
• Windows 10: Intel i7 or i9 processor (or equivalent AMD processor) or better; 16 GB of RAM, a dedicated GPU with 8GB of VRAM

NOTE: ProPresenter 7 requires a working Internet connection in order to be able to install the software, register, and receive updates. An internet connection is not required to run the software. As projects get more complex with more screens, higher resolutions, or higher compression quality, a powerful computer with more RAM, faster processor, or a faster GPU will definitely help.
