When you use Insert Video in WPS on Windows, 3 common question types include format compatibility, choosing an insertion method, and playback control; this FAQ summarizes common solutions.
FAQ
What video formats are supported?
- When you insert a video in WPS on Windows, choose a common video file format first.
- The listed common formats include MP4, AVI, WMV, and FLV.
- If a file cannot be inserted or played normally, check whether the video format is supported.
What is the difference between embedding and linking a video?
- Embedding stores the video content in the presentation file.
- Linking keeps a reference to an external video file.
- If you need to share the presentation as a standalone file, embedding is usually more suitable. If you want to reduce file size, linking may be more appropriate.
Can I control video playback during a slideshow?
- After the video starts playing, check whether playback controls are available.
- During playback, you can usually pause the video or drag the progress position.
- If playback controls do not work as expected, re-enter slideshow mode or confirm that the video was inserted correctly.
