Lack of robust video support is the biggest drawback of Beamer versus PowerPoint, Keynote, etc. pdfpc somehow makes it work. It would be nice if we could, too.

Experimental video support has been added in branch videos: https://github.com/jpreiss/pypdfdeck/tree/videos. It seems to work pretty well so far.

It requires a modified version of the pdf2image library that supports extracting the embedded URLs from the PDF. This is currently in draft PR at Belval/pdf2image#257.

If we can get this PR accepted, we should merge video into master.

If not, we can consider reimplementing some of pdf2image's functionality locally, but that would be a bit ugly.
