NOTE

Your Microsoft Account must be on a domain that allows for external/public access to files.

Tip

Keep it simple and clear - too much text will confuse people and likely be too small to read on screen.

  1. From the App launcher open PowerPoint and create or edit your presentation.
  2. From the File menu click Share then click Embed

  1. You will need to click the Generate button to create the embed code - note that an embedded file can be viewed by anyone with the link.

  1. On the Embed setting screen simply copy the embed code (The slide size settings won't be used so it doesn't matter what you choose).

  1. Now head over to TrilbyTV.
  2. From the Add menu top right choose Web Content.
  3. Paste in the link you just copied and click Save. You can optionally set an auto-delete or auto-unapprove date/time after which the web content will be removed or un-approved.


    Your web content is added to your feed like any other content, you will need to add it to a category or playlist, and approve it, before it will show on your screens.

NOTE

Microsoft PowerPoint does not have the feature to auto advance embedded slides. If you want to use multiple slides you will need to open the PPT file in the Desktop version of PowerPoint and record the slideshow timings.
