About TrueSlides Pro
Hide the YouTube player in Google Slides. TrueSlides Pro removes the play button, progress bar, titles, and "suggested videos" from embedded videos, so your audience sees only the video when you present.
Embedded YouTube videos in Google Slides show a thumbnail, a play button, a progress bar, and recommended clips you'd never put on screen. TrueSlides Pro hides all of it automatically the moment you start presenting. Videos look the way they do on TV.
WHAT TRUESLIDES PRO DOES
• Hides YouTube player controls and UI: Removes the progress bar, buttons, video title, channel info, suggested videos, and end screens from videos in your slides.
• Forces the highest video quality: Plays every embedded video at the best stream your connection allows, so you don't get 360p on the projector.
• Fades in from black: Videos ease in from a clean black frame instead of snapping on mid-thumbnail, and fade out smoothly at the end.
• Pauses on the last frame: Your clip ends on its final image, never on a wall of "watch next" thumbnails. Press the arrow key and your slide advances cleanly.
• Pre-buffers playback: Videos buffer quietly before they play, so there's no stutter or loading spinner when the audience is watching.
• Blocks stray clicks and hides the cursor: Accidental clicks won't pause the video, and the mouse pointer hides automatically.
WORKS WITH
• YouTube videos embedded in Google Slides
• Google Drive videos in Google Slides
• Slideshow mode and fullscreen presenting
HOW IT WORKS
Install the extension, open your deck, and present. There's nothing to configure. TrueSlides Pro is active only while you're presenting. It stays dormant while you edit, so it never interferes with building your slides.
FAQ
How do I hide the YouTube controls in Google Slides?
Install TrueSlides Pro and start your presentation. The controls are hidden automatically.
Does it work with Google Drive videos in Google Slides?
Yes. Both YouTube videos and Google Drive videos in your slides play clean automatically.
Does it change my slides or the original video?
No. It only changes how videos display while you present. Your deck and your videos are untouched.
