    Ok – I got the my scoreboard grahics done by the person who does the gotham girls roller derby. I figure out I need desktop presenter to use it. I proceed to down load. Nothing. Cant get it to work – it sayd firewall blocking port 7272 but even after turning off firewall (and speaking to mcafee to see if I missed anything) still nothing. I tried to post on wirecast forum but i cant even get logged on there – no place to create a password so even if I want to post a cannot. I have spent all day on this and very frustrated. I have windows 7 on a PC with the latest version of wirecast – somebody please help,

    Install Apple Bonjour on all Windows computers running Wirecast and Desktop Presenter. Wirecast should detect DTP open on any Windows computer at that point (not needed for Mac).
    Make sure Wirecast is 3.5.8 and DTP Windows 1.0.4 and DTP Mac is 1.0.3.

    DTP always uses port 7272 so it must be open. You need to make sure firewall on desktop and router or any other place on the network, is not blocking it.

    Always include step by step in a post otherwise I have no way determining what you’re doing.

    Desktop Presenter needs to use port 7272 so please unblock the port.
