Question I have an avi video clip that plays perfectly in Windows media player, but not in Powerpoint. when I insert the clip using the movie tab, it shows the first frame of the video but when it starts to play the video goes black and only the audio is heard. Do you have any suggestions on how I can get this to play properly? Thanks!
Answer Hi.
This problem is mainly caused by two reasons. First, media player doesn't support this video format; second, powerpoint somehow doesn't support the video's inner coding format.
Since you said the video plays perfectly in Windows media player, I guess it's the second reason. I suggest that you convert this avi. file into wmv. WMV file is the most compatible format with powerpoint. You can google some free converter. Have a try and good luck!
