Purpose

This article is for departments making use of the Powerpoint - Google Drive TV Presentation Setup for their Displays that ECI has configured for them.

Requirements

  • Access to the Google Team Drive for the Displays.
  • Powerpoint Installed.

Optional

  • Google Drive File Stream installed.

Powerpoint

It is highly recommended that Powerpoint documents made for the displays have the following:

  • Slide Show is setup to be Browsed at a kiosk.
  • Setup the Powerpoint to either:
    • Automatically switch slides (Timed).
    • Have navigation buttons to switch to different slides within the presentation.
      • If you use this option, we also recommend that you have a timed slides switching to avoid burning images into the screen.
  • Saved as Powerpoint Show (.ppsx) so that the Powerpoint automatically starts as a presentation.
  • Saved with the same name as the presentation in the Team Drive.

Double-click on the Folder that pertains to the screen you want to update.
