Figma Slides - Share link & Playing video

Hi there,

Thanks for the feedback!

I tried to create a test slide with an embedded video, and it seems to be working for me. Could you take a look at my sample slide? My test slide is here, and please note that this link will expire in 7 days: Sample Slide Dev

While video uploads are available on any paid plan, I believe you should be able to do it if you are on a paid plan.

I’m also curious about the blurriness you mentioned regarding the video in Figma. Would you be able to share the file link with access to support-share@figma.com? This won’t affect your billing. I hope to investigate this further.

Thanks for your patience!

Hey there! Thanks, this is helpful. Funny, this is exactly what I was looking for but couldn’t (and still can’t) find. It seems the difference lies in the URL structure:

When I want to share a presentation, I get a shareable URL that looks like this:
figma.com /slides/[DECK ID].

Whereas your link has this structure:
figma.com /deck/[DECK ID].

That makes the difference. Or am I clicking the wrong ‘share’ button? in the upper right corner?

Another question; is there a way to ensure that the videos are sharp from the very first second? It seems like they start in low quality and only after a few seconds do they stream in high quality.

Ah I see! To enter “Presentation” mode in Slides, click the triangle icon. Once in Presentation mode, you can share your presentation: step by step↓

Regarding video quality, it starts in high quality on my end. It might be a rendering issue in the pc environment. It should only take a few seconds to render. Can you take a look at this article for more information?

I hope this helps!
