From: Emperor on 16 Dec 2009 06:23 Hey all, I am creating a powerpoint presentation for my company. We would like to insert a video into the presentation. I know there are several posibilities: - Insert the video just like inserting a video, but hereby losing the posibilitie to use fullscreen (this option isnt available before PP2003) - Inserting a video into a 'Windows media player' controll element. Everything worked fine at first... but now I am having problems. The video automatically resizes with like 150% when flipping trough the sheets. I don't know if anyone knows this problem, I can't find it on Google or anything... So my idea was, can I set the size of the video in VBA? I know I have to use WindowsMediaPlayer1.width/height etc.. But I don't know into what Sub I need to place this... - Third option I tried was converting the files to flash (swf), but I cant get the video to play, maybe this is a problem from PP2000, or its just me... Anyone have any ideas? Thnx in advance! Mathijs
From: TAJ Simmons on 16 Dec 2009 08:46 Mathijs Can you not just "insert > movie > from file" and then manually re-size the movie to fill the screen? It's hard for me to imagine what ppt 2000 was like :) cheers TAJ Simmons PowerPoint Master http://www.awesomebackgrounds.com awesome - powerpoint templates, powerpoint backgrounds, free samples, ppt tutorials...

From: Emperor on 16 Dec 2009 08:51 Mr. Simmons, First of all, thank you for your reply. What you suggest is ofcourse possible, but the idea was to play the movie small when this was enough, but having the possibiltie to play the video fullscreen when needed. This is why i was using the controll elements, cause this was a full player with options for pausing, full screen etc (just like a WMP window). Do you have any other ideas?
