Re: Affect on sound files when moving forward and backward

Well, try setting it to play from slides 1 through 999. I suspect you want
it to play through 12 slides, but you're actually transitioning more than 12
times because of the forward and backward transitions.

Even if you set the sound to play through 999 slides, it should stop when
the next sound starts.

Hi, Echo. For one group, the sound is set to play automatically from slide
1
to slide 12. It works if I go back 1, but will not play if I then go
forward...

Your music should play even if you're going backwards. How many slides
did
you set the sounds to play for? PPT considers each transition (whether
forward or backward) to be a slide....

I want to play different background music for different sections of my
presentation. The music plays until a new section is reached. However,
if
you
press the forward or backward buttons the music won't play.

I've seen instructions for inserting blank pages but they tend to deal
with
simple animation (pings and the like) and/or instructions relate to
automated
actions on a particular slide. Anyway, inserting a blank slide for
every
single slide would double an already huge page count!

Putting a sound button on each slide seems impractical as well, since
the
music would play from the beginning with each click.

Any suggestions?
