Large presentation files are difficult to share and more prone to being slow and laggy or even crashing. But how do you find out which slides are causing the issue and how do you fix them?
Step 1 – Use BrightSlide to tag all the large media in your deck. This tool is a bit of a hidden gem for BrightSlide users. Head to the BrightSlide tab, and in the File & Masters section under Review, select Tag Large Media. BrightSlide will add comments to each large media item in your deck. Any image that is larger than 2000×2000 pixels, or any video that is more than 10 seconds in length will get tagged.
