Beamer not showing mpg videos?

[Guurt]

Hello All,

I have a presentation in PPT'97 on a laptop with Win'98 with some mpg videos
(352x288 pxs) in it.
On my laptop the presentation shows perfectly.
When a beamer is connected (1 on 1 with the laptop screen show) the video's
do not show on the beamer!? (but do show on the laptop!)
I tried this on 2 different beamers, a very old one and a bright new one,
and both have the same problem not showing the video's...

Anyone have an idea?

Thanx
Guurt
