Keynote movies

Harmony can play movies exported from Apple's Keynote presentation application. These movies are played transition-by-transition.

(These instructions and images reference Keynote 5. The ability to export a manually advanced movie was removed in Keynote 6.)

In Keynote

  1. Open your presentation in Keynote.
  2. From the File menu, select Export...
  3. Select the QuickTime tab
  4. Change Playback Uses: to Manual Advance
  5. Change Formats: to Full Quality, Large
  6. Click Next...
  7. Keynote will prompt you for the location to save your movie. Save it in your Harmony Media folder.
  8. The export will take a little time depending on the length of your presentation and the transitions used.
