Music stops

G

Guest

I have a slide show of 24 slides with at least two transitions per slide,
(some have 5) of pictures and text. I have embedded a music file which I
converted from a wma to a wav. The show plays perfect on my home computer.
When I put it on my flash drive and play on a different computer, the music
stops on slide 17.

I have gone into animation and increased the sound to stop after slide 999.
Still the music stops. What am I not doing correctly? Please help it is for
a 25th anniversary celebration.

Thanks
Hollie

There should be a loop or loop contiuously button in the set up feature.

Try this is you haven't already.

Does slide 18 have any kind of "stop previous sound" applied to an object's
animation?

Or maybe another sound?
Some sound cards will not handle two sounds together

Did that answer the question / help?

Thanks for everyone's help. I found out the problem and it was rather
simple. I used a trial software version to convert my wma to a wav. What
the software didn't really point out until I looked further was that it only
converted 60% of the file. I purchased the software, converted my file and
viola. It works.
