- Use the Media Library to track and replace all audio/video in one place

- Use variables for URLs so you can update links in one place instead of slide by slide
- I’ve also managed iframe videos using JavaScript by loading a master web object from a server and dynamically changing the video based on the slide number. This way, you only need to maintain a single HTML file instead of updating each slide.
