beamer overview

All the definitions are in 00-def.tex, all the imports in 00-imports.tex and all settings are in 00-settings.tex. This is a very simple but clean organization of the template which users are encouraged to employ.

Feel free to add new functions, improve the existing ones or customize the style to suit your needs.

This template supports embedding video in the presentation with the utility command \includevideo[mp4][pageopen][pageclose][${aspect_ratio}]{${width}}{${video_name}}. The way this works is that there is, by convention, a video folder located at ./videos and videos MUST be placed in the root of this folder. Before adding any new video to the presentation, you have to run the extract_first_frames.bash script located at the root of the template. This will automatically extract the placeholders to be used for the videos.

Main package dependencies:

  • Pdf visualization with slideshow and video support: Okular. Install on Linux with sudo apt install okular. Okular is tested and works with this template and also provides quite a complete set of tools, including drawing on the slides and customizing transitions between them. Other readers might work as well.
  • \includevideo is a wrapper on top of the media9 package. Install it on Linux with sudo apt install texlive-latex-extra.
