MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / July 2007movie clips
I am having difficulties getting my movie to load on my project it tells me video not available, cannot find 'vids:mjpg' decompressor. I have no clue what that means. I recorded about 2 mins on my camera and that is what I am trying to use.

Read Austin's tutorial: http://www.playsforcertain.com/tutorial.htm Try here for conversion help: http://www.videohelp.com/convert#4;13 Sonia's article seems to imply you can just rename the extension but I can't see that working - if you want to give it a go ctrl+drag the avi file in windows explorer to create a copy of it then right click -> rename file. Good luck!

Lucy >> Sonia's article seems to imply you can just rename the extension but I >> can't > see that working I first found out about this trick a long time ago - I've not seen it NOT Work for this error message "cannot find 'vids:mjpg' decompressor" It tends to be movie clips from a 'digital camera' that exhibit this error in powerpoint. Renaming the file is by far the quickest fix. cheers TAJ > Hi > [quoted text clipped - 28 lines] >> > > what I am >> > > trying to use. Thanks TAJ - I thought changing video formats was more complex than that.
