Adding a Movie
You can add a movie to a slide that plays when a slide appears or when the presenter
clicks the mouse.
Here are ways to add a movie:
m Drag a movie file from the Finder to the slide canvas or to a media placeholder.
m Click Media in the toolbar, click Movies, select a file, and then drag it to the slide canvas
or to a media placeholder.
m Choose Insert > Choose, select the movie file, and then click Insert.
When a movie plays during a presentation, movie controls appear when you move the
pointer over the movie if “Show playback controls when pointer is over a movie” is
selected in the Slideshow pane of Keynote preferences. The controls available depend
on the size (dimensions) of the movie; the smaller the movie, the fewer controls visible.
Also see, “Creating Movie Builds” on page 113.
Adjusting Media Playback Settings
In the QuickTime Inspector, you can change such settings as when to start and stop a
movie, and the frame to display until the movie starts playing.
To set media playback preferences:
1 Click Inspector in the toolbar, and then click the QuickTime Inspector button.
2 Click the movie or sound object to select it.
3 To start and stop the movie at particular frames or times, drag the Start and Stop
sliders.
4 To specify which frame of a movie to display until the movie starts playing (called the
“poster frame”), drag the Poster Frame slider until the movie displays the image you
want.
5 To start the movie when the presenter clicks the mouse (instead of when the slide
appears), select “Start movie on click.”
