Re: No sound with WMV files in PPT07?

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

This will sound flip, but it's not meant to be. Have you rebooted?

Hello,

I'm attempting to add some wmv videos to my presentation. The videos play
fine, bu there is no sound. I'm somewhat stumped because it worked yesterday,
but as of today I can't get wmv to play with sound. Here is what I've already
tried:

- I do NOT have the slideshow muted
- the videos do play in windows media player
- the videos and presentation are in the same folder
- for kicks, I also tried putting both directly in the C folder without any
luck
- I tried adding media player to the slide through the developer menu and
then specifying the location of my video, but each time I tried to play it
the program would freeze while it said "media changing"
- The wmv files were created in windows movie maker from some avi files I
had. They were published with the "DVD quality" settings. However, I also
tried a small wmv downloaded from the web, which also didn't work, so I don't
think my conversion is the problem.

What am I missing???

Thanks in advance for your help,
Jen
