How To Add Audio And Video To WPS Presentation Slides

Adding multimedia elements to WPS Presentation slides makes your content more interactive and compelling



Whether you’re teaching students, pitching a product, or developing instructional material



integrating sound and video strengthens audience understanding



Begin by accessing your WPS Presentation and positioning yourself on the desired slide



Confirm that your audio or video file is saved in a standard format such as MP3, WAV, MP4, AVI, or WMV



For audio insertion, locate and select the Insert option from the main toolbar



Click the Audio button found in the Insert ribbon section



A menu will pop up offering two choices: Insert Audio from File or Online Audio



Select Audio from File to browse your computer for the desired audio clip



Go to the directory containing the audio file, highlight it, and press Insert



Once inserted, a small speaker icon will appear on the slide



You can click and drag this icon to reposition it anywhere on the slide



To modify playback behavior — like auto-play or click-to-play — click the speaker icon and access the Audio Tools panel in the ribbon



Options include enabling continuous playback, making the icon invisible during the show, and adjusting the audio output level



Video insertion works in much the same way



Navigate again to the Insert menu and click on Video



Again, you will see two options: Video from File and Online Video



Pick "Video from File" to browse for a locally stored video file



Browse to the file, select it, and click Insert



A small video frame will pop up where you inserted the file



Just like the speaker icon, drag the video’s corners or sides to adjust size and position



For playback customization, click the video and open the Video Tools panel



Set how the video starts — automatically, on click, or wps下载 looped — and whether to mute the sound



Choose a custom preview image that appears prior to playback



Using a poster frame improves visual appeal and sets context



Keep in mind: embedding high-resolution videos can dramatically increase file size and hinder portability



To avoid this, consider linking to the video file instead of embedding it



For linked files to work, the video must stay in the same directory as the presentation file



To link rather than embed, toggle the "Link File" option in the insert dialog or edit via the Properties menu



Run a full slideshow test to confirm audio and video trigger properly



Monitor playback timing, adjust audio levels, and watch for any buffering issues



video files together



The software includes built-in trimming tools for both audio and video content



then select the Trim option in the Audio Tools or Video Tools tab to delete unnecessary parts



Finally, remember to keep your multimedia elements relevant and purposeful



Limit each slide to one or two media elements to maintain clarity



Prioritize crisp, uncompressed files for the best listening and viewing experience



and always consider accessibility by providing captions or transcripts when appropriate
