click to start movies

T

Txrailhorns

I transferred a powerpoint presentation from a dvd to my documents folder and
the associated movies with it. I went through and deleted the movies and
reinserted them and when asked I answered "click to start". When working the
slideshow this effect does not work. I use a Targus 5 button remote, and the
arrow keys. If installed to "start automatically" the movie will play fine. I
have windows vista and powerpoint viewer 2007 on my Dell notebook.

If you answered "On Click" you have to click ON the movie to start it (not
just click anywhere) You may not be able to do this with your Targus.

Instead choose Automatically, now go to the custom animation pane and make
sure that the after previous animation for the vid is first in the list.
Select it and change to "On Click"
