Hello, I'm trying to run videos in a Power Point Presentation.
The videos have different formats: mpg, avi, movie clip.
All the videos run normally in QuickTime or Windows Media Player.
But as soon as I insert them into a slide, they don't work anymore.
In Show mode, when I click the slide, the black square where the video is
supposed to be inserted, turns into a white square, and nothing else happens.
When I click again, power point goes to the next slide.
One more thing, my computer is connected to a server. I have uploaded the
whole folder, containing the power point document, as well as every video
into the server, and then, I open the power point from the server and
re-linked the videos to those uploaded to the server, and guess what? The
videos run perfectly from there.
Isn't it weird?
Any help with this? Thanks in advace!!!!
