How to convert avi to pptx file

  • Video

A direct conversion of Audio Video Interleave files to Microsoft PowerPoint Presentations (.avi to .pptx conversion) is not possible. However, you can easily import or embed AVI videos into an already existing/new PPTX presentation.

Microsoft PowerPoint supports the AVI video format, should you, however, encounter issues importing specific AVI files, try converting them first to WMV format (Windows Media Video). That should fix any compatibility issues. In such case, refer to the AVI to WMV conversion entry.

Understanding AVI and PPTX file formats

AVI (Audio Video Interleave) is a multimedia container format developed by Microsoft, commonly used for storing video and audio data. It is widely supported and often used for high-quality video playback.

PPTX is the file extension for PowerPoint presentations created with Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 and later. It is based on the Office Open XML standard and supports multimedia content, including embedded videos.

Why convert AVI to PPTX?

Converting an AVI video to PPTX allows you to embed video content directly into a presentation, making it easier to share and present multimedia information within slides.

How to convert AVI to PPTX

There is no direct file conversion from AVI to PPTX because PPTX is a presentation format, not a video format. Instead, you embed the AVI video into a PowerPoint presentation. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Open Microsoft PowerPoint.
  2. Create a new presentation or open an existing one.
  3. Go to InsertVideoVideo on My PC....
  4. Browse and select your AVI file.
  5. Click Insert to embed the video into your slide.
  6. Save your presentation as a PPTX file.

Best software for embedding AVI into PPTX

The recommended software for this process is Microsoft PowerPoint (2016 or later). It offers robust support for embedding and playing AVI files within presentations. If you encounter compatibility issues with AVI files, consider converting the video to MP4 using a tool like HandBrake or VLC Media Player before embedding.

Tips for successful conversion

  • Ensure your AVI file is not corrupted and plays correctly before embedding.
  • For maximum compatibility, use MP4 format if PowerPoint has trouble with AVI files.
  • Always test the embedded video on the target computer before presenting.
