Movies on pps

[Guest]

Hi

Two question about movie Integration :

1. Can I configure that when a movie ended, Power Point switch to another
Slide) (My Menu Slide?)
2. When I go to a Slide with a integrated Movie, the movie start
automaticly, but only the first time,
on successive times, when i return to that Slide , the movie is on "Stopped"
state.

many Thanks !

I'll try my best to explain (hopefully correct):

1. YES - You need to set a Slide transition to "Automatically after xx
seconds". Now the tough part that you will need to play with. If you have
a 30 second video playing it would make sense to set the slide transition to
31 seconds. Try that and see if it goes to the next slide 1 second after
the movie. Sometimes (and I can't get any consistency to explain), it will
wait another 31 seconds after all animations are done before it moves. In
that case try setting it to 1 second and after the movie is over, it should
transition.

2. When you return to a slide it comes back at the "End" of the slide. What
you will need to do is to put a blank slide with the same background as your
movie slide and set it's Slide Transition to "Automatically, after 0
seconds). Then link back to the blank slide. It will then immediately go
to your desired slide at the "Beginning" and no one will be the wiser.
