Is there a way around converting videos?

[mj]

Trying to play mpegs on a Mac PPT, which was created and
burned on a PC. I heard there was a way to do this
without having to "convert" and "re-insert"/save the
movies on a Mac, but I'm having difficulties.
Thanks!

Taj,

Yes, this is what I did when I created the PPT on Windows,
then burned the entire folder, vid's and all. But when I
try to play the ppt on my Mac I have problems. I have
to "convert" the mpegs, reinsert and resave.

Can other people play the same ppt on win/mac w/o having
to convert their vids? If so, it may be a problem with my
burner...
thanks,
