Hi,
When I try to give a presentation using Powerpoint using a
digital projector, the movie displays on the laptop's
screen but does not appear on the projector's screen. All
the slides show, the area surrounding the movie (.mpg
format) shows, but not the movie itself.
Please send any helpful answers to (e-mail address removed)
Thanks,
Heather
 
This might be a good place to start.

Videos play correctly on computer but not on projector (black box)

In our experience, this is usually due to MS Windows being unable to
show the Video on both the Laptop and the Screen display
simultaneously.
The fix? Make it only on the projector screen.
To do this hold down Fn and press the "Screen" Function key... usually
F5, but this varies on different laptops.

Hope it helps
