MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / April 2008Why can I get sound but no video on inserted movie in powerpoint?
I am trying to insert a 2-minute video into a power oint presentation and have it play automatically. The sound plays from the video plays, but no picture. The video plays on WIndows Media Player. If I insert the video using action buttons or insert the windows media player and play it through that, it plays fine, but then it will not play automatically, only on a click. Any suggestions? Hi Sounds like the file path is too long. Try this: 1. Create a folder on your C drive (e.g. C:\mypres) 2. Move presentation & video file to this folder 3. Re-insert movie into powerpoint file Does that fix it?
