How can I save my power point presentation to be played
back on a dvd player? Please reply promptly.
 
Powerpoint does not have the built-in ability to save powerpoint
presentations as DVD-Video. You can try to capture your screen presentations
as video files using windows media encoder or ms producer. The latest
burning software such as Nero can burn your presentation video to DVD
directly.

One way of converting powerpoint presentations to play on a home dvd player
is discussed in this tutorial
http://www.powerpointbackgrounds.com/powerpoint-to-dvd.htm

Another way, if you only need static slides, is to export each "final
frame/slide" as a bitmap image...and then use a dvd authoring program

Hi,

To quote some very important information from John Langhans:

If you (or anyone else reading this message) have suggestions as to how
PowerPoint improve it's options for controlling the playback of audio (such
as fade in/out), or publishing to movie format, including DVD, don't forget
to send your feedback to Microsoft at:

http://register.microsoft.com/mswish/suggestion.asp

As with all product suggestions, it's important that you not just state
your wish but also why it is important to you that your product suggestion
be implemented by Microsoft. Microsoft receives thousands of product
suggestions every day and we read each one but, in any given product
development cycle, there are only sufficient resources to address the ones
that are most important to our customers so take the extra time to state
your case as clearly and completely as possible.

IMPORTANT: Each submission should be a single suggestion (not a list of
suggestions)

[CRITICAL UPDATE - Anyone using Office 2003 should install the critical
update as soon as possible. From PowerPoint, choose "Help -> Check for
Updates".]

Hello,

PowerPoint does not have the built-in ability to save presentations as
video files or other video formats such as DVD-Video and, even if it did,
there would be significant loss of interactivity (because DVD-Video and
PowerPoint slide show have very different capabilities in this area) and
loss of visual fidelity (DVD-Video resolution is less than typical computer
display resolution and most television will not render colors the same way
that a computer display will).

So, if the ability save presentations to DVD-Video (even with unavoidable
loss of some interactivity capabilities), directly from within PowerPoint,
is important to you (or anyone else reading this message), or if there are
specific features of PowerPoint slide show distribution that you would like
to see (which might eliminate the need to save presentations as DVD-Video),
don't forget to send your feedback (in YOUR OWN WORDS, please) to Microsoft
at:

http://register.microsoft.com/mswish/suggestion.asp
