PowerPoint please help

[Phil]

I'm a teacher and I'm trying to create a PowerPoint presentation with a MOV
file that comes up at the end of the slides. I have tried to do it with a
MPEG file and it works, but with the MOV file, which is the only one that my
camera Kodak LS443 produces, it says "PowerPoint couldn't insert a movie
from the selected file. Either the file is non-standard, or QuickTime is not
installed properly."
Can you please help.

Phil,

Try getting some software that will convert from a MOV to AVI or MPEG1

I believe powerpoint only likes quicktime 1 and 2 (from the dark ages)
