Could you provide an example file? This might be a bug in the lyx2lyx
converter.

Again, please post a minimal example.

Or you could use Impressive (http://impressive.sourceforge.net/index.php) which can be used to automate any PDF presentation. You might need to write a simple loop in some scripting language (I'd use Perl, but Python, bash, etc. would work) to repeat the show. Les
RE: Beamer question: Addional infos for Teacher
It sound like branches are good fit for your problem. Make the presentation. Make new branch in Document->Setting -->Branches. Make the changes for the students, change the document layout to handouts. Make a new branch and add the extra for the teachers. Choose the right branch you want when making the different handouts and the presentation. Some addition info can be fount in the lyxwiki: http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Presentations http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/HumanitiesLyX#toc4 hth, Ingar

Hello
im looking for a solution to make two different types of presentations with
beamer from one Source-document:
The first one is a normal Handout for the students.
The second one is a special handout for the teacher. The second one has
additional informations for the teacher (examples, discussion points, facts
that are necessary for teaching.
Is it possible to make this kind of Documents with latex beamer? Who does it
works!
Thanks for every idea.

The following works fairly well for handouts:
1. Insert into the preamble (Document > Settings > LaTeX Preamble) the
command \setbeameroption{show notes}.
2. Create a branch (Document > Settings > Branches) for the notes,
using any name you like. Activate the branch when you are creating the
instructor handout; deactivate it when creating the student handout or
the actual slide show.
3. Any place you want a note, do the following:
3a. Create a standard environment (paragraph), which you may nest under
an enumerated or itemized list item like any other text.
3b. In the standard environment, insert the branch (Insert > Branch >
[select your branch]).
3c. Inside the branch, change the environment to NoteItem and insert
your note.
More granular control of notes is possible (Beamer user guide, section
19) but probably requires the insertion of raw LaTeX.
