insert videos in slides : no way to put relative paths ??

[Arnaud de VILLEDON]

When I insert videos in my powerpoint, it remembers the
absolute path. I can see it when I ask this video property
(i.e. C:\render\project1\ssproject3\video1.mpg).

When I burn my project into a CD for a client (the
powerpoint AND the videos) ; when he copies the folder in
his HD, the powerpoint cannot run the videos, because it
tries to find them in C:\render\project1\ssproject3 !!

Can we ask powerpoint to call the videos with a RELATIVE path ?

Thank you for advance

Place the videos in the same folder as the presentation on your system.
Then delete them and reinsert them in the presentation, pointing to their
new location. When you burn them to the CD keep them together in the root
directory. Likewise, have your client copy them all to a single folder on
his HD.
