Powerpoint preferred format?

Posted by Vincent Strader on February 19, 2016 at 8:58 pm

I’m using:
Media Encoder 9.2.0.26

On a Macbook Pro
OSX 10.10.5

Needing to create a file from:

Adobe Premere CC 9.2

For a dell laptop. I’m not sure what kind or what version of powerpoint my manager will be using. He just emailed me and told him to make some video files for his PP presentation.

Is there a preferred universal format of video for powerpoint? Looking at all these different formats Encoder offers and I’m a bit overwhelmed.

For 2013 and later, use an MP4.

Lisa is right. Use a MP4 with the h.264 codec. That’s probably the most universally compatible format at this point – Mac/Windows, iOS/Android can all handle it.
