Video Clips in PTE

[CKAJCA]

I have a number of .mov video clips that I want to insert into a PTE presentation. I have tried Dr. Video and then used Customize slide and Run External Application to play the clip. Everything works OK but the slide show keeps going at the same time as the video clip is playing. Is there a way to show some slides, then play the video clip and then when it is finished to carry on with the rest of the slides?

May want to try adding your .MOV link as an Object Button.

Also add the Navigation Bar.

Allowing user to Pause – then one can click your Link Button to play .MOV

When done – unclick the Pause to Resume.

As Ken suggest, if sharing maybe another format might be better that Windows Media Player plays as it may require Quicktime Player installed for your viewers.

Further to my post above:

You did not mention about music.

If background music is added it will continue to play even when Paused and viewing your .MOV.

If you wish to stop the music while .MOV is playing, then choose to " Syncronize Slideshow To Music Duration " and click on " Permit Control Of Show "
