RE: Movie clips

Hi Alev

Thanks for the question, the answers to this could be various things

these are a bit basic but please check them anyway

Does the PC have a sound card
Are the speakers plugged in and turned on
Does the Clip preview before
Is the file the correct format
Does the PPT have sound on it
Is the sound muted

Let me know if any of these help if not get back to me asap

reply to this post and let me know the outcome

Many Thanks

RE: Movie clips

I have checked all of the above, sound is on and not muted. The clip is in Windows media format. The video clip starts fine and end fine there is just no sound!

RE: Movie clips

Hi Alev

Try running the video outside the Presentation i.e. using windows media player if it runs there then there is something that powerpoint is not allowing to run the video correctly

As this sounds like nothing wrong that you are doing in Powerpoint

If des not do the trick contact your IT dept

Thanks

Powerpoint tip:

Using the Quick Access Toolbar in PowerPoint 2010

The Quick Access Toolbar is included in virtually every Office product, including Outlook 2010, Word 2010, Excel 2010, and PowerPoint 2010.

You will find the Quick Access Toolbar in the top-left side of the window. To begin, click the Customize button (it's the little black arrow at the end of the toolbar).

Simply click the commands you want to include.

Virtually any command can be added to the Quick Access Toolbar. Click the More Commands option and a new window will open from where you can browse the commands including those not on the ribbon.
