Re: problems getting mp3 files to play

Place the same MP3 on a single slide presentation and set it to play
automatically when you insert it. Does it work?

I have Powerpoint 2003 SP3.
I downloaded MP3 files from Amazon and added one of them to a slide using
Insert, Movies and Sounds, Sound from a File. My down loaded files are at
a
path of C:Downloads - Music so the lenth of the file shouldn't be a
problem.
I can right click on the speaker and select Play Sound and the MP3 file
plays
(after a 5 second delay???). However, when I play the Slide Show it goes
past my MP3 file and never plays the music. In the Custom Animation,
Effect
Option, on the Effect tab I selected Start - from the beginning, Stop
Playing
- after 999 slides . On the Timing tab I selected Start - after previous
and
Delay 0. I think it has something to do with the next slide but I have
tried
everything I can think of.
