Audience

Presenters, content creators, and any user interested in a free teleprompting software to use without a teleprompter setup

About QStart

We have decided to make our entry-level QStart teleprompter software free to download so that everyone can experience the benefits of using an Autocue teleprompter. QStart is the entry-level teleprompting software from Autocue (QPro and QMaster are also available for more complex requirements). QStart allows you to import scripts from a word document or text file, or type directly into the application. Scripts can be formatted using common windows functionality including different fonts, font sizes, colors, text alignment and simple markers. A wired or wireless hand or foot control can also be added to control the speed or direction of the script, or this can be done from a mouse or keyboard attached to the PC. QStart also has the dual-screen capability so that the script can be reversed in order to display the correct way up on a teleprompter for the presenter, and on the PC screen.

    "Simple, effective, clunky "

    Posted 2022-02-08

    Pros: Easy to load text in, colour, font options are good. Custom commands for quickly moving around the script are easy to create and reliable.

    Cons: The layout of the settings doesn't make it easy to quickly find what you want to change to change it. You need to work with it a few times on site to learn which involves holding up production possibly even a few minutes.
    Settings saving are hit or miss. You set up the entire program to your liking, move to a different site, only to find you have to do it all over again.
    On extended display, the prompter scrolls smoothly but the operator display is jittery and you don't know if you're actually doing a good job a lot of the time. This is true even for powerful computers.

    Overall: It works, it's free, it could be better. There's no more development on it. You can have a good production with it, but it takes some trial and error to learn the nuances of the settings. It isn't always straight forward.
