"multimedia" works for me very well. You need to include
\usepackage{multimedia} in the Preamble and then some centered ERT will do nicely \movie[width=10cm, height=7cm, showcontrols{% \includegraphics[width=10cm, height=7cm]{% powerpoint.png } }{powerpoint.mov} Needs to be presented with Acrobat, and it will ask for some permission stuff the first time, which you don't see in full screen, so you must remember to escape full screen, give the permission and return to full screen. I didn't try AVI but MP4 does not work, so conversion to MOV is required. Once the learning curve has flattened, this is trivial and works well. greetings, el On 2020-04-19 16:32 , UD Kap wrote: > Is there a way to embed movies (mpg, mp4, avi) in a lyx/beamer > presentation?
