video-object

hej Echo,

..exe files are flash files, but they are not because they are .avi (I'm
really sure they are .avi :-) )

Oh, I've seen a couple of these. I think they're actually EXE files, and
the EXE includes a viewer. You'd use Insert | Object | Create from File to
insert it.

no flash... I do know that the movies come out of a pharmaceutical
program to make 3d drawings. But these are .avi files. The doctor told me
that he had tested it also on computers out of his environment and that
it worked fine. Shame I don't have a screenshot...

Dunno. Maybe it was Flash?

Could be that the other laptop was running PPT 2010. It has a video
slider like you describe.

Hey John,

thnx for that, but I knew this already. Let me explain some mo

I just had a ppt presentation (ppt 2007) which showed underneath a
video only a very basic timeline (to scroll) and pause and stop sign
like in windows media player classic.

Problem further on is that the video('s) on my computer do not seem
to work in windows media player (they look all green) but do work in
windows media player classic, so I was trying to find out that I
could embed windows media player classic into a slide instead of the
one you show in your example.

Strangly i saw it all work on another laptop without any problems...

Peter

You can inset a media player object from the control toolbox. See
here - this
is for sounds but the method is the same. In 2007 it's best to
enable the
develop tab in PowerPoint Properties from the large office button to
get to
the control toolbox.

Set the URL in properties (RIGHT click) to the path to the video
UIMode can be set to full, mini or none

hi all,

how can I import a video file (as an object?) so that I have a show
control
while presenting. I know how to insert it so you have a windows
media player
view. But I want it just to be a time-scrollbar with pause/play and
stop (or
similar).

Who can help me?

Thnx, Peter
