Playing WMV movie files when grouped with text

H

HollyP

I've inserted a WMV movie file into my PowerPoint presentation that is the
background of my slide essentially (it's a blank billboard sign with moving
clouds in the background). I've overlayed a text box to display on the blank
billboard sign, however when in viewing the slide in slide-show mode - the
movie motion does not work (it won't work when grouped with text). How do I
fix this so that my caption appears as the "movie" (clouds in the background)
continues to run?

Hi Holly

Whatever you do the movie will play IN FRONT of the text. You may find that
clicking on the movie will start it but you wont see the text

You cn purchase fairly expensive add ins or maybe re edit the movie in Movie
Maker or a commercial editor to include the text.
