Is it possible to save a Powerpoint Project to a DVD to
have it continuously play on a TV/DVD combo? The
location for the presentation is not secure, so this
would be a perfect way to make it work. Any suggestions?
 
What Sonia said - here are some links that will help you capture PowerPoint

If you have access to PowerPoint on the Mac, you can output your entire
presentation to a QuickTime movie:

Yes it is possible. First, you need a dvd burner and burning program (i.e.
nero burning rom) Then, Browse for the file while in the program, put a
blank medium into the drive of the dvd burner (dvd+R/ dvd+rw)
Then, insert the file into the program, and click burn. On a normal dvd
burner, you should then have to wait from 5 to 20 minutes.
 
Benjamin, the method you describe won't produce a DVD that can be played on a
standalone DVD player because it is still in PowerPoint format and a computer
will be required to play it. In order to play it on a standalone DVD player,
the presentation must first be captured as a video file which the DVD player is
able to play.
