You can add a slideshow or intro video to your EventLive event page before your livestream begins. This is a great way to welcome guests, share photos, or show an introduction before you go live.
What Kind of Slideshow or Video Can I Add?
You can upload any video file in a standard format, such as
.mp4.If you have a slideshow in PowerPoint, Google Slides, or another program, you need to export or save it as a video file first.
You can use any slideshow or video editing app (like iMovie, PowerPoint, or Google Slides) to create your video.
Important: EventLive does not support uploading PowerPoint, Google Slides, or photo files directly as a slideshow. You must convert your slideshow to a video file.
How To Add a Slideshow or Intro Video

Open EventLive app or Broadcaster console
Select your event
Tap Manage Video tab
Select the video and the upload will start automatically
It might take a few minutes for the video to be converted and to appear on the event page
My slideshow is in PowerPoint or Google Slides. Can I upload it directly?
No, you must export or convert your slideshow to a video file (like
.mp4) before uploading.
Can I show a slideshow during the live stream?
No, EventLive does not support adding a slideshow or video during the live stream. If you want to show a slideshow while live, point your streaming device’s camera at a screen displaying the slideshow. The only option to add a slideshow or video during the event is to use a laptop and professional set up with OBS Studio.
Can I upload multiple photos as a slideshow?
You need to create a video from your photos using a slideshow app or video editor, then upload the video.
What happens to the video when I go live?
The uploaded video will be automatically replaced by your live stream once you start streaming.
Important Notes
The final event recording will only include your live stream, not the pre-uploaded video or slideshow.
EventLive does not have a built-in slideshow maker.
You can upload other files (like PDFs or documents) in the Title, Date, Time, Event Link, Upload tab, but these will not play as a slideshow.
Additional Tips
Test your video before the event to make sure it plays correctly.
If you need help converting your slideshow to a video, check the help section of your slideshow software (like PowerPoint or Google Slides).
