Open your web browser, go to Google Slides, and sign in with your Google account.
3: Choose a template (optional)
Google Slides offers various templates you can use as a starting point. You can choose a template that suits your TV menu or start with a blank slide.

If you have more than one slide, you can change the duration of each slide by changing the ‘auto-advance’. The default is 3 seconds. Make sure the “Start slideshow as soon as the player loads” and “Restart the slideshow after the last slide” boxes are both ticked.
