The only other way I can imagine is if you use a recorder like an Atomos Ninja to record the HDMI output that was going to the presentation screen. That's a pretty expensive way to avoid having to do some editing though.

<p>I'm wondering if there is a quick and easy way to synchronize a video of a conference speaker with the slides that the speaker shows without having to manually edit them in Premiere or Final Cut. The result should look something like this: https://youtu.be/o12-90Dm-Qs?t=699
Also I want to avoid another camera just to record the presentation.</p>
