RE: Complicated music question

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi,

I would like the second song to follow the first. Right now, I have the
first song starting on slide #1, and the second song starting on slide #30.
But slide #30 comes and goes, and the music doesn't start.

Thanks for your help!
Neil

I'm not clear what you need. Do you want the songs to play together or the
first followed by the second? (or something else) Do they have to be embedded?

I've got a PowerPoint 2007 presentation (though it is saved as a 2003 file)
for a charity fundraiser, and I am trying to embed music into it. I have
converted the two songs that I want to use into .wav files, and inserted them
into the presentation. The first song plays perfectly. But the second song
just won't play -- the slides continue to advance, but without music.

I have increased the Max Sound File to 50000. I have tried "start on
click," "start with previous," and "start with next." I have tried "play
sound across slides," "automatically," and "when clicked." I have it set to
"start playing from beginning." I am using Custom Animation, and have tried
to make the "transition sound" the .wav file I want. In short, I have spent
hours on this, and am at my wits end!

If it makes a difference, the songs are about 43MB each. Is there a total
limit, other than the 50000 per file limit?

Thanks so much for helping -- it's for a good cause!
