This feature is only bringing a portion of the original ppt frame in - what am I missing?

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

You would need to add any 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.

Thanks for the reply but what I meant to say is that only a portion of the picture is imported. It sort of appears like it took 800x600 of 1024x768.

I went back to Powerpoint and set the resolution to 800x600 for the slideshow but that made no difference. The export still only brought a portion of the original pictue in. I am still searching for a resolution setting in DVD PixPlay.

Hi

Is this even when you preview it from within PixPlay, or only when you show it on a DVD player?
