  • PowerPoint motion on a DVD? (Urgent)

    Posted by Phil on June 21, 2005 at 6:22 pm

    Hi,

    I was able to successfully transfer still PowerPoint slides to a DVD in idvd, I saved each slide as a JPEG and dropped it into the slide show area of iDVD5.

    I was now given a PowerPoint presentation that has motion in each slide or multiple slides in each slide in Powerpoint. When I save as a JPEG it obviously loses the motion.

    How can I transfer the motion or multiple slides within a slide in Powerpoint to appear the same way on a DVD?

    Thanks

    Sounds like you would either have to completely rebuild the show in a video program (like AE or even FCP) and then create a video DVD. Your other option would be to record the PowerPoint presentation and then burn that to a DVD, but I don’t believe you will be able to make an interactive DVD with motion in iDVD (or even DVDSP for that matter, but I could be wrong). You might try posting this in the DVDSP forum.

    Power point on the Mac has an Quiktime export feature that “sort-of” works. You’ll have to re-export the file thru QT pro to a DV codec or whatever your using. Fcp doesn’t like the file out of PPT. It’s buggy and you have to play with it.. oh and it looks crappy, but if you have to have the PPT motion, give it a shot.

    A thread from 5 days ago worth a read and note the Keynote 2 post by me–Bryce.
