There are a number of problems that can arise if you attempt to insert a PowerPoint presentation into a slideshow cue and the settings are not correct in the PowerPoint file.  Examples include:

• PowerPoint control screen popping up over the MediaShout control screen
• Main Display remaining black after exiting the slideshow cue
• Output of slideshow cue incorrectly sized on the Main Display

These issues can be avoided by ensuring that the following settings are properly set within the PowerPoint file:

• Set your PowerPoint presentation resolution to "Use current resolution".
• Make sure that 'Show on' is set to "Monitor 2...".
• Be sure that the "Use Presenter View" is unchecked.

The location of these settings in PowerPoint 2007 and 2010 is shown here:
