Q: Adding mp3's to presentation and burning to CD

[Chip L]

I created a presentation and added a backing track by inserting several
mp3's into the presentation - one song each at several points in the
show. I set each song to run for X # of slides using Custom Animation.

Everything works great on my computer but when I burn the presentation
to the CD it doesn't take the MP3's. On the burned CD, each inserted
sound files is still referring to its location on my hard drive.

I want the user to simply run the presentation with backing track from
their CD drive using their PPT application.

Best/easiest way to package the presentation with backing tracks
(mp3's)?


Thx
Chip Long

You need to link the MP3's correctly **before** burning the CD. See:

Sounds/Movies don't play, images disappear or links break when I move or email a
presentation

After you correct the linking, save your file to your hard drive. Use your CD
burning software and move the presentation file **and** the MP3 files to the CD.
