Converting Power Point Presentations

Couldn't find any posts on this. Is it possible to convert a Power Point Presentation to a video format using VMSPP V9? I've got a ton of training presentations I need to get on-line. Any suggestions?

Vegas does not import PowerPoint directly because they are not media files.

You could use a screen-capture video application and import that into Vegas.

There is an application called "Moyea PPT to Video Converter" that worked pretty well when I tested it. It is not free but shows up on GAOTD occasionally.

If your slides are static with no special effects, then you could do a Save As and choose JPEG as the file type. All slides will be saved into a folder as individual JPEGs.

But if you do have special effects, then what musicvid suggests is the way to go.

Shouldn't that be GOTD since it's Giveaway not Give Away?

Type each acronym into Google and see which gives you the most relevant hits.
Just going with the flow here . . .

Great idea MSmart. I believe this will work the best. I'll add the special effects in post. Thanks a lot.
