FAQ
Where are the data coming from?
The data used in this plugin is royalty-free content. The content is very much similar to the content you’d find on Wikiquote.
Wikiquote is a free online collection of sourced quotations from people and creative works from all nations, translations of non-English quotes, and links to Wikipedia for even more information.
Can I add my own?
You can create a new slide and add a text element to it with your favorites and perhaps a nice image background.
What happens if my player doesn’t have an Internet connection?
The plugin will load random quotes into player memory on the first load. If your player does not have Internet on the first load, the plugin will not be visible. Subsequent loads will randomize a quote from the player cache, so the connection is no longer relevant.
