Thanks to help from Jorma is was able to set my PPTX in continous loop, and change the amount of seconds a slide was shown see how do i let a pptx presentation run on its own

There is only one issue left. What are the best settings. I find that to let it run, i need to press the sync button, but then the participants may choose (inadvertently) to stop the presentation from running in the loop.

What are the correct settings, so that a participant only sees the slides (no side bar etc) and the loop is running?

Your answer is very much appreciated

    You shouldn't need to press the Sync button. In the Pod options menu for the share pod, with the PPT loaded, you will see an option for Show Presentation Playbar. Use that to get the Play button for the Hosts and Presenters in the room, and press play. The presentation will now play in a looped mode for everyone in a synchronized mode. You can also then hide the playbar to keep other Hosts and Presenters from stopping the playback and the Participants will never see the playbar or have the option to stop the presentation.

    Additionally, if your focus is on the Share pod (has the focus highlight), you can use the 'P' key to begin playing the presentation without revealing the playbar to anyone. Adobe Connect 9 * Accessibility features

    I know this post is very old - but is there a way to have the PPT loop continue when the host leaves the room? We have a room that is set to allow anyone with the URL to enter. This means that the room is "live," if you will, all the time. The PPT is set to automatically advance slides every 10 seconds and play on a loop. I would like to have the PPT looping anytime someone is in the room, with or without a host. Every time I've tried, it will only advance the slides when there is a host in the room. 

     

    The purpose of the room is basically to have a space for our students to pop in and test their settings, more in-depth than the test page that Adobe provides, before class is in session.
