play and pause video with wireless controler

N

No

I am trying to use a wireless controller, or a "Clicker", that has 4 buttons,
to control a PowerPoint presentation that I am giving.

The presentation includes a video that I would like to play and pause at
different parts of the video clip. When the movie ends and I click my
"Clicker" I want PowerPoint to transition to the next slide.

Currently, the click only performs custom animation and the pause animation
acts as a stop and restarts the video from the beginning each time I start it
back up.

Can anyone help me with this or recommend something that can make this happen?

The only way I know of pausing a video clip is to point the cursor/pointer
at it and click it.

Or insert a video clip with the 'play controls' (e.g. start stop rewind
buttons) and click the pause button.

So I believe you're out of luck unless you can find a clicker that can
emulate a mouse.
