X51v Power Point with videos help needed!

thefiredude · 12-28-06, 08:40 AM

I have a Power Point presentation which seems to run fine on my X51v with one exception. I have 3 short videos (a copule minutes each). They do not run. The "still frame" for each is there but does not run. On my laptop all I have to do it click the "stiills" to get the videos to run. All are wmv files as well. I have the presentation on my 2GB SD card along with the videos. An help on getting these to run? It would elminiate the need to take my bulky laptop ect.

Thanks in advance!:)

I too have struggled with this, even after trying 3rd party PPT apps (Pocket Slideshow, Pocket Slides). A PPT presentation without multimedia kind of defeats the purpose...

Yes powerpoint on the PDA is really only good for still images. You could try switching to TCPMP or core player to show the short clip. I have assigned the email button to this program so I can pull it up fast and play the clip and then return to the PPT. This makes it alittle smoother/faster.
