playing video from powerpoint slides as virtual background

[Lis]

I have a webinar panelist using powerpoint slides as a virtual background. She cannot find the control/play button to play a video embedded in her powerpoint presentation. Is that an option or is it shut off when she's using slides as a virtual background? When she is just sharing the slides normally, the control/play button is there and she can play her video.

Hello Lis,

Thank you for your inquiry.

Please note that sound, transitions, or animations embedded in slides when using slides as virtual background are not supported. I hope this helps.

Good to know---I think putting this on the information page for virtual slides as background would be a good idea since I'm sure others will wonder as well....thanks so much for your answer.
