I have inserted an mp3 sound file into my PowerPoint presentation and told it
to play automatically throughout, which it does. However, no matter what I
try, I cannot get the music to start until 8 seconds into the presentation.
In custom annimation, I have tried both to play with previous and after
previous--neither one changes the time that the music starts. Any ideas?
Thanks!
 
Yes, it is the first thing listed in the custom list pane and it is an mp3
file I purchased at ITunes. Thanks!
 
I have discovered the problem and do I ever feel stupid! The 8 seconds is in
the sound file itself. Now I just have to rerecord the file leaving out that
space. Thanks for your reply!
 
Thank you!! I was looking through my files and didn't see anything that
would work so I'll go get that one. Thanks again!
 
Thank you--I think I remember having to run the audio file through a
converter before I could get it to work on my PC. I appreciate your help!
