PowerPoint converted to MPG - for DVD

[Justin]

Do I need to purchase 3rd party software to convert a powerpoint
presentation to video (mpg or avi, etc?) if so is there good freeware or
what's the best value (cheapest) on the market? thanks

Justin,

see

http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00156.htm

I do believe there is some free software out there if you look hard enough

HIJustin

Free :
You can use the free screen capturing codes like window media encoder
from Microsoft to save a powerpoint presentation as a video
presentation and burn the video to dvd with a burner.

Or you have a camcoder , just video tape it

However, the video quality can a big issue.

Paid:
Google "powerpoint to mpeg/dvd " and you will find a lot in the market.

And you may have a glance at PPT2DVD from
http://www.ppt-to-dvd.com

Rather than screen capturing , this tool encodes a powerpoint
presentation to a video one so that the video quality is really
improved.
Besides, you can also create menus for the video on DVD.
If you are concerned the conversion quality a lot, paid programs will
be better.
