Help. We have a touch screen kiosk set up and on the first slide, there is a
movie that plays in the top 3/4. When you launch the slide show, it plays
just fine, but if you progress further into the show and then return back to
that slide, the movie doesn't play. Any way to force it to start playing
again?

FYI, I set up with rewind on exit, it is set to play automaticly
 
Echo S,

Thanks. That will fix my problem. Now I'll rant about how stupid it is that
PP returns to the end point of a slide and not the beginning and how much
better Keynote is as a presentation software. But we all knew that already

Put any two similar programs side by side. One will be better at some things
than others.

If the good points of the one and the bad points of the other happen to align
with your specific needs, then it's clear that one is a superior product and
the other is junk.

Put a different user with different needs in front of the same two products and
it'll be equally clear that one is superior and the other is junk. But the
order will be reversed.

Having a choice is nice, and the competition makes both of them work harder to
meet our needs.

Executive summary:

Horses for Courses.
Competition is Good.

Oh, I don't know. If I am giving a business presentation (Which is what PPT
was designed for) and have to visit a slide a number of times my audience
doesn't really want to sit through a movie or a ton of animations every
time. It really comes down to who is using the product and how they use it.
