PPT 2003 Video Cache

[Christi]

I am using PowerPoint 2003 after I have embedded a video to run when
clicked. When I run slide show the video will not run unless I have
advanced to the slide with the embedded video and click it once then backup
to beginning of presentation. If I do this the video runs but if I forget
to advance to slide (in slideshow view) and click once it will not
run.....Is there an automatic cache setting for the embedded videos??

What do you mean when the video doesn't run? What is it that you are trying
to achieve in the first place? How is the video inserted?

Could you look in the custom animation pane and tell us what is listed there?

I Insert Movie From File and set it to start when clicked. When I go into
SlideShow mode when I get to the slide with the video (it does this with all
videos, mpg avi etc) and click it...it does not run.
However, if i go into SlideShow mode and advance to the slide with the video
and click it once then back to the beginning or just backup one slide and
come back to the video slide when I click the video it runs fine (still in
slide show mode).

All it shows is my video with Start as on click......
