Presentation Software Help

We are looking for software to be able to do things people who post or stream videos do such as:
* record desktop, add annotations, notes, highlight parts of the screen, use webcam, insert pictures, videos, music, sounds, export is as watchable video, add animations,
* edit large video files we take with our dental camera, remove sound, improve lighting, add sounds/music, export videos, convert videos
* create how-to guides using the above
* any features which we might find useful or good/necessary that we are not aware of yet

We found Snagit and Hitfilm Express as being very good, but we wonder if there is anything better with more features.
We do not mind paying for software. We have Windows devices. The person using it is computer literate but didn't do any picture or video editing before so it can't be toooo difficult but we understand that she will have to learn how to use it.

thanks in advance

I am looking for a decent wireless microphone system with at least 2 channels for small presentations of less than 60 participants.

Ideally, this is what I am looking for...

- 1 wireless lavalier microphone for the presenter. Ideally one without a bulky transmitter.
- 1 handheld wireless microphone for audience participation.
- A channel mixer with a line out to record audio on computer.

The device needs to cost under $300.00

I have searched Amazon and I can't find any units that have a good rating and offer a handheld wireless mic with a lavalier style presenter mic.

Any ideas?

Thank you. :)

Hello,

i'm from germany and try to explain my exchange problem.

First i will tell you some about my environment.
2x DC running on W2K16
2x Exchange 2016 running on W2K16 in a DAG

I want use our Proxmox Mailgateway as smarthost.
When I enter the IP of the smarthost, everything is fine.
But i want use the FQDN because this name will be used soon in about 20 exchange servers.
There will be an error in exchange queue:
26.02.2018 15:01:27 - Server at mailrelay.mydomain.int returned '451 4.4.0 DNS query failed. The error was: SMTPSEND.DNS.NonExistentDomain; nonexistent domain mailrelay.mydomain.int -> DnsDomainDoesNotExist: InfoDomainNonexistent'

In cmd console on exchange and dc i can use nslookup and the result is ok.

Why can't the exchange resolve the FQDN when i use them as sent connector?
Where can I look for errors execpt the event log?

I hope you can help me :-)

Best Regards,
Pascal

There is a user manual for a camera located at https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjp46SOhO3VAhVj7IMKHcLABFoQFggrMAE&url=http%3A%2F%2Fsupport.casio.com%2Fmanualfile.php%3Frgn%3D2%26cid%3D001007048&usg=AFQjCNFevvPVWHgCmeFsJ3Ob58WE9GR6ZA

It is 200 pages. What app would I use to print it out 4 pages per sheet and print both sides to minimize paper use?
( I know there must be a more elegant way to reference a website than to do as I did above but I don't know what that method might be.) I do have Office and Photoshop and CorelDraw.

I bought this one about a year ago, opened it uf a fews days ago, and learned it had a hardware failure...

http://www.dinofire.com/product-detail/dinofire-dr100wireless-presenter-with-red-laser-pointer/

I need something like it, from a different manufacturer, that connects through USB or BT.

I need it to have at least:

1) a laser pointer
2) Up / Down arrows

And it must function well on a Mac.

Thanks

Hi,

Is it possible to share a Goole slide deck with someone and force it full screen?

I don't want the viewer to see the thumbs slides on the side and I need to make sure it is viewed in presentation mode, otherwise the deck will not make sense as i have several images and text that need to animate over each other. If you it view it without 'Presenation' mode, the graphics and text and all mumbled on top of each other.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello,

I am looking for a recommendation for free software that will allow me to capture video/audio of my desktop, an active window, or a specified area. I need it to be able to create small file sizes as well. I have been working with CamStudio, and am just fed up trying to get it to work. I would like to have something really easy to use so I can push it out to users and ask them to document common issues, do demos, and short training. If I have to I can buy it, but it seems like there would be some freeware out there. Any advice will be appreciated. Needs to be Win 10 compatible and show the mouse. Thank you!

I want to have a bottom-of-slide banner on every slide except the title slide.
But when I go into the slide master view, my banner is not removable from the title slide layout. It can only be removed from the slide master. How can I keep the banner on every slide except the Title slide?

I am looking for a software solution that would allow us to use a TV connected to a computer, to present a slideshow of sorts for company events, visitors in the office, employee birthdays, meeting dates..etc.

I would like to be able to update the "slides" quickly each day.

I think PowerPoint will take too much time to create a new presentation for each day.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Is there a Overhead Projector that has the ability to adjust the screen size without moving the projector. I understand it is the len that controls this but cannot find a projector with this adjustable len capabilities.

We have a projector mounted in at the ceiling 18' from wall, it is used at this point for full size screen 7'X12' image for a simulator software program.

We need to use this same room for Meeting/conference/presentations also the projector needs to adjust the projection screen size to approx. 5'x5' image.

I want to be able to paste text and change the formatting of certain lines in an existing text box, named "author", on my powerpoint file. I have a bank of authors that the user chooses from (1-10). I have a Select Case setup to automatically assign values to variables I'm using to populate the text box with:

	
Case Else
  strEngName = "<author's name>"  'line 1
  strEngTitle = "<author's title>"  'line 2
  strPhone = "Office: <author's phone>"  'line 3
  strEmail = "Email: <author's email>"  'line 4

Open in new window

The first two lines are Black and Bold Italic, the next two lines are Gray and Italic.

The text box is existing and I'm just replacing placeholder text.
