Hi! Is it possible to insert an entire PowerPoint presentation (including music) into PowerDirector 15? If so, how do you do it? Thanks!

Hello,

You can import PowerPoint files the same way you import any media files. Note that each slide in the PP is concerted to an image, and the quality of images and graphics on the PP may be degraded because of this.

I also don't think the music is imported, but you can record it or find it some where else and import it separately.

Another option is to play the PowerPoint presentation on your computer and use the Screen Recorder to grab it all. You then have sound and video.

Have a great day.

It is possible to save a PP presentation as an MP4.

Thanks to all of you for your help. The easiest way was to save it as an MP4 video. It then imported easily into my project. I appreciate you taking the time to answer!
