In-room congregations get the verse on the big screen. But online viewers stare at a preacher with no context for the passage being taught. A lower-third fixes that: the verse sits neatly along the bottom of the frame, readable on a phone, without covering faces. Done manually it's another job for an overloaded operator — done automatically, it just happens.

Questions
How do I add Bible verse lower thirds to OBS or vMix?
Run TajiCast alongside your streaming software and enable its NDI output. The verse appears as a full-width lower-third source you add to your scene in OBS or vMix — positioned, styled, and updated automatically as verses are preached.
Are the lower thirds automatic or manual?
Both. TajiCast detects the preached verse and pushes it to the lower-third on its own, but your operator can pin, skip, or trigger a verse by hand at any time.
Do I need the NDI plugin for OBS?
Yes — install the free DistroAV (formerly obs-ndi) plugin so OBS can receive NDI sources. vMix supports NDI natively. Our OBS guide walks through it.
Can I match the lower thirds to our stream's look?
Yes. Choose a full-width lower-third theme and adjust colours and styling so scripture matches your stage and broadcast branding.
Is it free?
Yes. TajiCast is free on Windows, including the NDI output — no subscription and no per-stream limits.
