Poster Frame to appear before Video is started by a trigger

I have a poster frame set on a video in a project.  I  want that frame to appear and the video plays on the trigger of 3 seconds into the timeline.  

When I preview that slide I only see the video starting at the 3 second mark like it is supposed to but the poster frame (visible on the slide) is not showing up.

I must be missing a step.  Can anyone advise?  Thank you. 

 

 

  • Hi Beth, 

    Instead of using the 'Play Video Automatically' option for your video in the video settings, use the 'When Triggered' option instead to allow the poster frame to appear for a few seconds before the video starts. 

    Let me know if this works for you!
