Text Formatting ⇒ Embedding Videos and Animations in a Presentation

[APIb000]

I'm aware that it's possible to embed some kinds of videos and animations in LaTeX files (using the beamer or prosper classes) but I couldn't locate good documentation on this. My web searches returned a list of scattered forum questions and answers.

Could anybody give a link to some help or documentation page that systematically deals with the various ways of embedding videos and animations, the file types that work, etc.?

Since prosper is outdated, use the beamer class and the »multimedia« package that is shipped with the bundle and explained in the class user guide.


Best regards and welcome to the board
