QTVR exported from QT Pro on Mac for a Powerpoint 2007 on Vista

OK: I am producing object QTVRs on a Mac (10.5) for presentation by a
client in PPT 2008 on his Vista platform.

Yes, its messy. AND I have not visited this topic since 2004: Office
(!) Thankfully, there's no audio, of course.

IS this the best way [still?]:
Part A: Export:
In MacQTPro: File> Share > Share as Quicktime Movie; Options>
Cinepak for compression > 30fps, no data limit > Save; ship/deliver.

Part B: Insert:
Client inserts .mov into PPT 2007 as an
"object" (insert>Object>movie). Test and test again. Package.
Burn disc; burn back-up; post to website as emergency retrieval.

OR: [considered way]: Client inserts Action Button; Add
Hyperlink> .mov address in same folder
--- Does that mean it goes OUT to the QT player (Win)? Won't that
look BAAAAAD in a conference?? YES.

SO, my .mov needs to be *embedded*inside the PPT--- right? Buy me a
CLUE!

PLEEEZE relate your experience.... deadlines looming large!

Thanks.

Since you have a way of doing part of the job on the PC, have a look here:

Other option: convert the movie to Flash and embed flash in the PPT.
