I have a movie clip attached to a slide in powerpoint, but when I convert it to pixplay the movie will not automatically play. I have changed the powerpoint file into a .jpeg to be able to add the slides, but when I do that I lose the video as well as the animation from each slide. Can this not be done?

On my reply to you on September 23 I explained this:

Note 2: DVD PixPlay will not import transitions, background
music, animations or other native PowerPoint features

Yes, you would need to add the movie to your PixPlay project after importing it from PowerPoint.

Yes, you will need to manually add any SOUNDS OR VIDEOS in your pps slideshow to your PixPlay project. To do this select Edit>Slideshow Properties from the DVD PixPlay menu, and select the Background Music tab. Click the Add button and then browse to the PowerPoint sound file.

If you are unsure what sound file the PowerPoint presentation is using:
1. Run PowerPoint
2. Select File>Open
3. Browse to the PPT or PPS file and click OK
4. You will see a small sound icon (generally on the first page), right click it and select "Edit Sound Object"
5. In the Information section you will see the filename for the music file.

Also, DVD PixPlay does not support animated GIF files at this time.
