You are on a Mac, right? This is a bug that has already been fixed for
the next version. It is caused by the shortcut insets used in the
beamer manual.
A quick workaround:
switch to utf8 encoding and add this to the preamble:
\DeclareUnicodeCharacter{2303}{\textasciicircum}

Some characters of your document are probably not representable in the chosen
encoding.
Changing the document encoding to utf8 could help.
I went to Document -> Settings -> Language and changed Encoding from Language
Default to Other -> Unicode (utf8) and then this happened:
Package inputenc Error: Unicode char ⌃ (U+2303)
Package inputenc Error: Unicode char ⌃ (U+2303)

Your command was ignored.
Type Ito replace it with another command,
orto continue without it.

The beamer-article.lyx also failed to render for similar reasons but first was

has textclass `beamer'
while parent file has textclass `article-beamer’.

FWIW, it compiles fine for me (pdflatex), both with language set to
default and with it set to UTF8. This is on Linux Mint, LyX 2.3.2.

Re: Embedding sounds and video in beamer class
First,
why are you putting Frames into ERT? LyX has commands for that.
Then, I have renamed one of my MP4 files, since that was not included in
the allegedly MWE and as I had seemed to recall, the multimedia package
doesn't like MP4.
Use MOV, ie transform
VID_20180616_094640.mp4
into
VID_20180616_094640.mov
which does work.
But, since I don't use Acrobat as the defaul reader on the Mac, I
compile on the command line
lyx -f -e pdf5 beamer_media_test.pdf
and then fire up acrobat as Skim and Preview do not display movies. If
Acrobat is your default reader than you might get away with running View
(Alt-R (?))
I have changed to LuaLaTeX as default in the document, by the way.
greetings, el

Beamer manual and examples fail to render
The Beamer manual, Help -> Specific Manuals -> Beamer Presentations fails to
render. I assume that it would render in PDF as a usable presentation by which
some of its features are shown thus making the textual part more relevant. Here
is the problem:
Could not find LaTeX command for character '⌃' (code point 0x2303)
Some characters of your document are probably not representable in the chosen
encoding.
Changing the document encoding to utf8 could help.
I went to Document -> Settings -> Language and changed Encoding from Language
Default to Other -> Unicode (utf8) and then this happened:
Package inputenc Error: Unicode char ⌃ (U+2303)
Package inputenc Error: Unicode char ⌃ (U+2303)
\end{frame}
Your command was ignored.
Type Ito replace it with another command,
orto continue without it.
When I clicked Show Output Anyway I got a nice PDF but I don’t know if it has
errors.
The beamer-article.lyx also failed to render for similar reasons but first was
this error:
Included file `[examples/beamer.lyx]'
has textclass `beamer'
while parent file has textclass `article-beamer’.

Daniel Btw. it is always helpful if you can include a minimal example, so one does not need to guess what your setup is when answering. Daniel Thanks, Daniel I have asked in a separate mail for a biblatex template for a book. I am a bit lost with the requirements. Do you happen to have one or a link to the Internet? Wolfgang I am a bit lost with what you are after. What do you mean by "a biblatex template"? Daniel A template (>file>template) which I can use for starting a book with biblatex settings. Wolfgang I see "File > New From Template" on my end. I take it that is what you mean. You can easily create your own template. Just create a new document and make all the settings you would like to have in your document. Then save it in the template folder. Daniel
