Hello! There's a feature that I use a lot in PowerPoint that only works on Mac PowerPoint that I would LOVE it if it worked on Window's computers too...

 

Video playback for videos with an alpha channel (i.e. a video with areas that are fully transparent, allowing the slide underneath to *show through*)

 

Here's an example that I exported on a Mac from PowerPoint: https://youtu.be/OJ1tNWzSv1w 

Notice how you can still see the text and white slide background underneath when the fly enters?

That same slide on Windows would turn the entire slide black as soon as the fly video begins, so you wouldn't be able to see the slide content underneath.
