How To Add Audio And Video To WPS Presentation Slides

Adding multimedia elements to WPS Presentation slides makes your content more interactive and compelling



Whether you’re presenting a classroom lesson, pitching to investors, or designing a training course



visual and audio components improve communication clarity



Begin by accessing your WPS Presentation and positioning yourself on the desired slide



Verify the file is in a format recognized by WPS Presentation, including MP3, WAV, MP4, AVI, or FLV



To add sound, click on the Insert tab in the ribbon at the top



Within the Insert tab, find and click the Audio button



A dropdown menu will appear with two options: Audio from File and Online Audio



To insert local audio, pick "Audio from File" to access your files



Go to the directory containing the audio file, highlight it, and press Insert



After insertion, a miniature speaker symbol will be displayed on the slide



You can click and drag this icon to reposition it anywhere on the slide



Tailor how the audio triggers by selecting the icon and switching to the Audio Tools tab on the toolbar



Adjust settings such as repeat playback, conceal the icon in slideshow mode, and control sound intensity



Video insertion works in much the same way



Go back to the Insert ribbon and select the Video option



Again, you will see two options: Video from File and Online Video



Choose Video from File to locate a video saved on your device



Locate the video, click once to select, and press the Insert button



A small video frame will pop up where you inserted the file



The video thumbnail can be resized and relocated by dragging its borders



For playback customization, click the video and open the Video Tools panel



Here, you can choose playback options such as Play Automatically, Play on Click, Loop Until Stopped, and Mute Audio



You can define a poster frame — the still image shown before the video starts



A poster frame gives viewers a meaningful preview instead of an empty space



Keep in mind: embedding high-resolution videos can dramatically increase file size and hinder portability



A better approach is to link to the video file externally



For wps官网 linked files to work, the video must stay in the same directory as the presentation file



If available, enable the "Link to File" checkbox in the Insert window, or adjust it later in Properties



Run a full slideshow test to confirm audio and video trigger properly



Ensure the media syncs correctly, the volume is appropriate, and there are no loading lags



To avoid missing files, always bundle the presentation and audio



You can shorten your media files right inside WPS Presentation



to extract only the needed clip, use the Trim function under Audio Tools or Video Tools



Use multimedia only when it enhances your message — never for decoration



Limit each slide to one or two media elements to maintain clarity



Prioritize crisp, uncompressed files for the best listening and viewing experience



and always consider accessibility by providing captions or transcripts when appropriate



These practices empower you to create dynamic, engaging WPS slides that leave a lasting impression
