Motion Backgrounds

[Guest]

When we activate a motion background we have inserted into a slide, any text
we have inserted disappears or moves behind the background. What would you
suggest?

Explain what you mean by a "motion background".

Gods Outlaw,

unfortunately, when powerpoint is playing a media clip (video/movie), it
plays it 'on top' of your content.

There are some ways around this, but you will need a truly kick-butt system
for them to look nice.

1) Turn the movie into a GIF file and use this instead of the movie file.
The movie will be HUGE and may loose significant quality, but will play in
the background.

2) Look at Office FX for PowerPoint at

excellent stuff)

3) Look at Crystal Graphics new Video background add-in at
http://www.crystalgraphics.com/powerpoint/video.backgrounds.main.asp

4) And I know there are some another softwares that would do this, but the
names escape me at the moment.
