With Screen Monkey, it should be possible to do that already, but with 2 different bible clips. First create both clips, setting the appropriate translation on each one. Then set each one to a different layer and set the display profile appropriately to show both layers on different spots on the screen. Then when you play both clips, both versions will show up.
Now, I know that doesn't solve being able to switch verses on both clips simultaneously. You would likely have to fade both layers down, change verses, and then fade both back up. But you can go to next/previous verse with the left/right arrow keys. Set your active layer to the first, arrow, and then set active layer to the other, and then arrow.
Hopefully, that at least lets you do something close to what you are proposing.
For me to code the ability to have 2 bible clips work simultaneously would take a fair amount of work I think in order to do it properly. But it may be possible.
Thanks again
Andy

Informational:
I am running the Bible Clip on a x64 system. What is the proper procedure to using the Bible Clip.
Background:
My Pastor usually calls out scripture, and needs those displayed in 15 seconds or less. I have been using the Bible Clip plugin for a couple months now, and noticed some things.
When trying to change scripture while the clip is displayed, it will make it go to that same Book 1:1. Also, once it has done that, there is no way to control it from that edit/cue.
From this, you have to make another Bible Clip. Initially I open 10 Bible Clips and when he needs a new scripture, I'll use another clip and just have them all on one layer, but many times, one will have the Passage Title displayed, while others won't.
I don't believe this is a bug, so I have not posted it to the tracker. I just want to know the correct process, because I have yet to use the "ok" button since it makes the edit/cue window disappear. I will post screen shots on Sunday.

Newburns,Here's how I normally run it when using it in service. First, make a Bible Clip, loading the translation and desired formatting. When the message starts, play the clip and use the appropriate layer fade to fade the layer down all the way (you may wish to fade the layer down first so nothing displays when you play the clip). When a verse is called out, click on the book drop down in the live monitor. Then start to type the book name, and it should auto-complete it for you. Once it auto-completes, hit tab which changes focus to the chapter. Type the chapter, then hit tab to change focus to the verse. Type the verse and hit tab again to load the verse. Then use the layer fade to bring the layer up showing the verse on screen. If you need to go to the previous or next verses, the left/right arrow keys will advance the verse one at a time.I have found this to typically work within a few seconds, when I'm using it. I normally only need one Bible Clip per service, unless I would want to use multiple translations.It still needs work to get it working as most people would expect it to. Because of my setting it up to work this way, clicking on the controls in the live monitor may not have the expected effect, as you have experienced.Hopefully I will have some spare time in the next week or two to get some more work done on the plugin. The last few months have been rather busy for me, so work on the plugin has been slow/nonexistant.I hope this answers your question.Andy

For those that do not follow Codeplex:
I just released version 0.2 of the Screen Monkey Bible Plugin. It's still very much a testing plugin, but feel free to try it and let me know what works and doesn't work for you when running it.
The page to get it is at: screenmonkey.codeplex.com From there, click on Downloads, and then you should see Bible Clip Version 0.2. Read the details, and then try it out.
Thanks
Andy
