I have a PPS file (Powerpoint) with music and some of my photos.
In order to e-mail it, and to share it here for free, I compressed the
source for the WAV file, anyway; the PPS file is now growing in filesize.
EDIT: The below is somehow not clear, maybe even wrong (got confused).
The problem is better said in the other thread (see later)...
After hours of experiments, I decided to
(1) save the PPS file without music.
(2) Put back some other music.
(3) save the PPS file without music.
Now file saved (3) should be same size as saved (1),
but instead its now almost twice size than (1).
In other words, it seems like some garbage is growing, so I get the
opposite effect from what I intended :eek:
I havn't the origin WAV that came with the PPS file, so I simply
made a new one. But whatever I do, the filesize become very large even
I used an extreme small WAV file.
So the question is now this:
1: With origin big WAV: 2.5 MB (PPS).
2: With new small WAV: 2.8 MB (PPS).
?
Benny,
PS. The only formats I used, was PPT, PPS and WAV files.
(Windows XP, Powerpoint 2002 (10.6819.6830) SP3)
BTW. Stupid that Movie Maker can't save as "MP3" or "WAV" after edit.
I had to convert the WMA to WAV before Powerpoint was able to use it!
Even an export button in Media Player was missing. It seems
Microsoft like us to buy all kind of programs elsewhere on the Internet :(
