I have hundreds of Powerpoint Files with thousands of avi files integrated.
Since i reinstalled my System with Windows 7 the Videos in PPT tunr after
playing into a black box instead of showing the last frame.
The same PPT-Files runs in Windows XP without any problems.
I tried different codecs. I also tried to reduce the hardware acceleration.
Has someone a a quick word of advice for me?

Many thanks in advance.

Regards

Matthias

I have the same problem, solved only if you renamed the avi file to mpg.
But this is a tedious job if you have a lot of presentations loaded with
videos, cz you will need to re-insert them again.
 
Hi,

Yes- but if you simply linked them, you could change them in the source
folder (if it is the same as the one the presentation is in).
