Hi We often have guest speakers with PowerPoint presentations that contain embedded videos. There doesn't seem to be a way that these videos can be played in Proclaim as part of the PowerPoint.

Hi @Lis Webb - and welcome to the forums
There are two ways I am aware of that this can be done.
When you add the PPT file to Proclaim, you can select the option to Transfer Control to PowerPoint. If you do this, the PPT viewer will be used in the background to show the contents of that presentation and this would enable the videos to play

Have a virtual display for my online slides allowing for lower thirds and transparency setting for my live broadcast. I can not seem to set the transparency background color if I use Picture in Picture. Is there a trick somewhere??
we have bilingual services some times and it would be cool to add 2 scripture translations on 1 slide like Spanish RV60 and KJV side by side
When I publish a sermon from Proclaim, it is not saving the first slide as a cover image. It used to, but no longer. Now I just have blank images. In my Proclaim presentations I have a start recording prompt, then the first sermon slide (always an image, never blank), then other sermon slides, then a stop recording prompt.…
