Powerpoint On Media Creator 10

[Allan Mac]

I have made a lengthy PowerPoint presentation and want to burn it on a blank DVD so I can put it in a DVD player and show it on a TV. Is this possible, or can I bring the PowerPoint presentation into Media Creator 10 without having to redo the whole presentation on Media Creator in a slide show? If this is my only option, which program in Media Creator do I use to make a slide show with caption, pictures and scanned pictures?

I have been using Acoolsoft's PPT2DVD program for some time now and it works perfect for converting a MS PPS to DVD. After conversion I have used it in EMC 9 & 10 Videowave and MYDVD programs and it works great including being able to edit it. Not free but there is a trial version if you would like to try it. Something I was wondering when I first got it was if it would transfer the audio in the PPS as well. And it does very nicely.

PowerPoint is a proprietary file format that would have to be converted/rendered to video before you can use it in MyDVD. There are several commercial applications designed to do just that. Just use your favorite search engine on the net.

If you only have this one or if you are going to do a whole lot more, I suggest Camtasia Studio. It is expensive but it works great. You can read about it and download a 30 day trial (to try it on this one presentation). If you are an educator and plan on doing a whole lot more, then there is a significant discount.

 

There is a free download of Camtasia Studio 3 (obsolete) on this site. I don't know anything about the site. I think that Camtasia Studio 3 will handle the Power Point presentation also.
