So, here's the situation:
I want to play certain video clips from a DVD in a PowerPoint presentation
in separate slides. Obviously, I'm dealing with .VOB files.
I am unable to insert these .VOB files into my slides as Movie or Video
Files as they do not play in the MCI Player (also known as Media Player 5.1).
I'm left with the option to insert the .VOB files as Windows Media Player
objects and of course, they play, but with the positional bar at the bottom
along with Play, Stop, etc... buttons.
Looking past the annoyance of the positional bar, the main issue with this
particular PowerPoint presentation is that if I put different video objects
in multiple slides and then run the slide show, I run into a little glitch.
The first slide with the video runs through fine aside from the video
defaulting back to the main menu of the DVD after the clip is finished. The
second slide with the video (be it directly after or after several slides
without video) plays the first video object as opposed to the one that was
assigned.
Now, if you hit play on the second video clip and the stop it. Go back a
few slides and then return to the second video clip slide, and then hit play,
it plays the correct video file.
The same issue with all video clips (except the first one) exists as they
repeat the previous clip and then plays the correct clip.
Has anyone else had this sort of problem before or perhaps knows a solution
to this?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
