AVI support in Power Point

[Guest]

I'm currently in the process of putting together a presentation with video content edited on Avid Xpress DV. What is the most successful export format from an Avid into power Point. When I try to import MPEG4 fils into PP, I get a dialogue box saying "Cannot display this type of sound or movie". Are there updated drivers available?

Any help appreciated.

I don't know that PPT supports MPEG4. If it does, then it certainly wouldn't
be very portable, as I doubt the MPEG4 codec is widely distributed.

I'd stick with MPEG1. Read up on common codecs for use with PPT at
