Hi LauPot, welcome to the community.
Here are the steps to achieve this:
- Host and record a live webinar (you can include real attendees or not). If you share any Polls future attendees will not be able to take part in them, so it's best to save that until the end when you will do the live Q and A.
- Download the recording of the webinar once it is ready
- Schedule your Live, Standard webinars (either as a series with individual registration, or multiple one off webinars)
- In the Engage your attendees section add the recorded webinar you made earlier
When you start the scheduled webinars instead of talking and sharing your screen you go straight to sharing the video of the recorded webinar, and at the end of the video you can start your live Q and A session. If you have never shared a video in a webinar before I highly recommend a practice webinar to go through the process first.

Thank you for this!
I have previously run a live webinar that had a video I wanted to share. It was embedded in a pot deck and worked fine from the deck itself, but when I was sharing my screen in Go To it wouldn't play. I will give it a go with a previously recorded webinar and see if that works.
Thank you

You're welcome. Currently, the best way to share a video in GoToWebinar is this method of uploading it and then selecting it from the Share Screen menu. When we move to the new GoTo App experience it has better support for sharing a video on your desktop and including you computer audio so it is heard on the conference call.
