How to control PowerPoint remotely with VDO.Ninja

Overview

Support for remote PowerPoint slide control. (previous/next slide):
  • Documented things quite a bit here: https://github.com/steveseguin/powerpoint_remote
  • I've only tested with Windows + PowerPoint so far, but it can be tweaked to work with more than PPT without much trouble
  • Uses AutoHotKey + VDO.Ninja + MIDI to achieve the result; quite a few different ways implement it, with samples provided
  • Built-in basic controller added, via &powerpoint (aliases: &slides, &ppt, &pptcontrols)
  • IFrame sample app provided with larger buttons and sample code to add more custom buttons/actions if needed. (start/stop/etc): https://vdo.ninja/examples/powerpoint
  • HTTP / WSS remote control also added; https://api.vdo.ninja/YOURAPIKEY/nextSlide and prevSlide
  • Local Streamdeck support also working, via MIDI
