Hi All,

I have a presentation that i've embedded a few videos. A couple of strange
things occur that i'm hoping is either a known issue that I can fix or it's
something i'm doing wrong and someone can point out how to fix!

Two videos in wmv format are approximatly 9 minutes long. After about 7 1/2
minutes, the video sometimes stops and goes back to slide 1 of the
presentation.

I am using PPT 2003 on a Pentium 4 PC with 1Gb memory.

Any ideas what causes the video to stop and revert back to the start of the
presentation?

Cheers, Scott.

For those that may have been wondering!

I had the slide with the video included automatically go to the next slide
"after previous" It appears not to like that with videos. I have since
removed the function and added navigation buttons to go to the next slide
instead and it appears to have fixed the issue.

I still find it strange that the timing on the next slide was different each
time and that it would sometimes revert back to slide number 1. I guess it's
just a glitch somewhere.

Cheers!
