How to prevent the user to pause an embedded video in Presenter'13 Jul 14, 2014 By Cat Nguyen I have embedded a video (.MP4) into a slide of Presenter '13. I would like to prevent the user to click on the video to pause and click again to play. If the user do this, the video playing is not syncing with the player seekbar?

Cat Nguyen Author almost 10 years ago07/14/14 at 5:56 pm (UTC) Hi Leslie, I have not included the video controls. But if the user clicks on the video itself (not on the video controls Play/Pause), the video will be paused. I have tried to cover the video with a transparent shape (rectangle) with No Fill, No Line but it also does not work. Thanks,
