Recording presentations with Keynote and PowerPoint using Wirecast is simply amazing. The folks at Telestream have an amazing tool on their hands and the way that Desktop Presenter works is really cool. If you have Desktop Presenter on your workstation with Keynote or PowerPoint, your presentation can be brought up on a separate computer running Wirecast. What’s nice is you can have several Desktop Presenters going within your Wirecast application. So if you wanted to have 5 different presenters speak during a Webcast or Video Recording you could have all 5 PowerPoint or Keynote presentations displayed at the appropriate time.

Many might not know it but Telestream’s Desktop Presenter helps provide Live Streaming video with PowerPoint. The tool works with the popular Wirecast Live Encoding tool from Telestream. Wirecast is available for both PC and Mac users. With Desktop Presenter you can display screen activity, powerpoints and .PDFs from your desktop So, if you need to show a PowerPoint Presentation during your live streaming event, install Desktop Presenter on the workstation that you will be presenting from. If the workstation is on the same network as your Wirecast Live Encoder you can pull the Desktop Presenter application up from the computer it’s running on. It will have an IP Address assigned to the Desktop Presenter. Once you see the Desktop Presenter application running inside you Wirecast Live Encoder, you can put the source in preview and call it up as a source. You can then switch back and forth from your Powerpoint to the Presenter giving the presentation.
