I would like to view it before I burn to dvd.

Hi Lynda

Unfortunately there are not really instructions i can give you, as the problem is not in DVD PixPlay itself, but is returned by Windows when it is requested to playback the video file.

Windows is being asked to play a video file, and finds that it does not have the driver to know how to play it, so it returns an error.

Installing the codec should easily resolve the issue, so I'm not sure why it is failing on your system.

Did you try this codec:

Another option is to convert the video files before you use them in your project, e.g. to an MPEG or standard AVI file.

In what way is it a demo? Does it expire or give usage warnings?

Hi everybody
I see I'm not the only one who wants to include videos in PixPlay Slideshows
For myself I think I have solved the problems, including the way to get the soundtrack of a video even if it is not at the beginning of the slideshow
And PixPlay if a very good product
Thanks to Nigel

Q. Can I export a Power Point presentation to DVD PixPlay so I can play it on a DVD player?

A.Yes. The steps are as follows:
i. Run Power Point and open your your presentation
ii. Select File>Save As, then from the "Save as Type" box choose JPEG and click OK
iii. Click Yes when asked to confirm that you want to export every slide

iv. Run DVD PixPlay and create a new project
v. Click "Add Images" and browse to the folder where you saved the images from Power Point
vi. Click "Add All"
vii. Edit the project further if desired (e.g. add background music)
viii. Click "Burn Disk"

Regarding the moving text--DVD PixPlay does not support GIF files which I assume your text would be.

Hi

At this time DVD PixPlay does not support moving text, but it is something we are interested in doing in the future.

When exporting a project from PowerPoint into DVD PixPlay, your moving text will not be retained.

Hi
It just depends if you are OK or not to pay for a software
For myself I got "AVS video tools"
you have several tools in this software:
AVS video converter with which you can convert any video in any format
AVS re maker with which you can cut any video
AVS capture with which you can ge a video from your camcorder
AVS DVDTOGO with which you can get a video from a DVD to your computer
I dont rmember the price but its not so expensive
With that software I have no longer problems with my videos
Try it!
Just "AVS" in Google
Have a good day
