Alright, my last topic didn't turn out well, i guess no one knew the answer.


I Need to have this project working by Sunday. Powerpoint has chosen to decline any video in mpg or avi format. It like wmv though. I'm desperate, I need a converter. I've googled, and came up with converters that leave a watermark in the middle or sides or such. I cannot have a watermark, this is a professional presentation. Does anyone know of a converter that will change a mpg to wmv. If it has a limited # of trys, that's fine. I only need 6 movies changed.
I'd rather figure out why my powerpoint won't take mpg files. it plays in WMP. It plays in the MCI device. Microsoft only tells me that if it works in the MCI, it'll work in powerpoint...

Powerpoint XP (I believe that's my version) Should have accepted them as well. It states it will if the MCI video player does.

I've tried the Powerpoint help file. It's technique however crashes my Powerpoint Doc.

you want one that doesnt leave a watermark yet you wont pay for one? I think the only way you'll get one that wont leave the watermark is if you pay for it, and thats fair enough as its for a professional presentation.
