Powerpoint to Movie.. continuous looping

[Whitney51]

I have a large presentation that has to be displayed on tv screens at a tradeshow. Last year I did the same thing in Powerpoint and I was able to burn a cd/*** however even though I asked the cd to loop.. it would not. I had to reset it at the show ever 20 minutes and what a pain. Is there a way I can do this to guarantee it will continuously loop...? I have access to both MAC and PCs to do this.
Any specific and detailed help would be fantastic.
Thanks!

Theres three things you need to do...

'Set up Show' and record your timings for each slide so that it will click on automatically.

Ensure the 'Loop continuously undtil ESC' box is ticked (see attachment)

and save it as powerpoint show PPS file (not a powerpoint presentation - PPT/PPTx file)


Then when you fire up the PPS file it will go straight to full screen and loop till you hit escape.

I hope this helps.
