3D, Power Point

Hellow fans,

I would like to insert 3D and stack images produced by image j in Power Point for presentations. Is these are possible?
I would be happy if someone could help me.

The easiest way is to save as an .AVI

If anyone knows how to reliably play any AVI or other format movie in PowerPoint (running on a PC, although this isn't reliable on Mac too), please tell us how. Each movie runs once or twice and then the window goes black. We've had a few IT people here look at this, but have not gotten results.
During presentations I simply switch to Quicktime or ImageJ where I already have the movies queued up, but it would be more professional looking to be able to use PowerPoint.
Thanks!

I find the simplest way to do this is to save your stack or rotating 3D projection as an .avi file and then insert this saved file into powerpoint directly. Set the animation speed to an appropriate fps setting for easy viewing.

Not exactly what you asked, but if your movie does not need sound, I've
found that an animated GIF does the job most times.

Michael, does that happen even when you have the movie on loop (set in Powerpoint)? I run Powerpoint 2004 on a Mac and I never run into this problem so long as the movie is set to loop.

Re: 3D, Power Point, I second the request

Hi all,

I also have seen this problem with the ImageJ .avi files particularly on Windows Powerpoint I believe.

Worst case scenario, one can export a ImageJ stack to a directory as a series of .png (or other) images. Then use something like 'mencoder’ from MPlayer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MEncoder) to make a movie in a number of formats including .avi.

Here’s what I’ve used to build an .avi file from PNG images at 60 fps (width and height are 200 pix):
> mencoder mf://*.png -mf w=200:h=200:fps=60:type=png -ovc copy -oac copy -o output.avi

More examples of mencoder’s use are here (see the section on “Encoding from multiple input image files” in particular):
http://web.njit.edu/all_topics/Prog_Lang_Docs/html/mplayer/encoding.html

For merging audio and video I’ve also used ‘ffmpeg’: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FFmpeg

Best regards,

John

Re: 3D, Power Point, I second the request

In reply to this post by José María Mateos

Hi all,

I have found a couple of things that seem to help. Firstly, on Office 2010, I use .mov files saved out of Quicktime Pro. These seem to play the best (much to Microsoft's chagrin I'm sure). Also, Powerpoint 2010 seems to work better than previous versions and shows a transparent movie player control under the movie for manual scrolling which is very nice. Secondly, I always have problems when running movies from network locations. I always copy the powerpoint and the movie to the local hard drive and in the same folder. Thirdly, the smaller the movie, the better. This is probably why .mov files worked better for me--I was able to compress down to smaller size and still maintain the quality I needed. Different compression formats didn't seem to change playback performance.

I was also surprised to find that my IT department had mirrored my My Documents folder to a network drive (so as to keep me from not backing up my data). Copying directly to the c drive or some other non-network location fixed the problem.

Hope this helps.
Jay

Re: 3D, Power Point, I second the request

In reply to this post by Cammer, Michael

These are longstanding issues with Powerpoint, and there is not one answer. If you are on a PC, the codecs used when saving the .avi versus the codecs installed on the PC can make a difference. On Macs, the format depends on the OS you are running. In older versions of OSX, .mov files work better, but the newer Qucktime version won't run those at all. We are all victims of the codec-wars.

In all versions of Powerpoint I have used, the program will not remember to loop the movie once you have set it to loop. I've wrestled with this since at least 2004. Microsoft has not kept their program up-to-date for the video-driven world we now operate in. It still focuses on clip are and other nonsense. Moving a movie-rich presentation from computer-to-computer remains problematic, even if you save as a "Package."

On a Mac, Keynote is the best solution for solving movie problems if you can adopt to it. Has anybody tried playing movies in OpenOffice? I tried once a few years ago, but it was not a positive experience.

Frustratedly,
Michael

Re: 3D, Power Point, I second the request

In reply to this post by John Hayes

Hi all,

If you need to insert an image stack into PowerPoint so that you can
interactively scroll through it (backwards or forwards) then I have found
the following works well in PowerPoint 2007 or 2010:

1. Save the stack as an image sequence (File > Save As > Image Sequence)
with a file type of .jpg (to keep the presentation size down) to a folder.
It makes sense to resize the stack so that the dimensions aren't more than
you need for the final projection.
2. In PowerPoint 2007 or 2010 go to the Insert Tab > Photo Album > New Photo
Album and follow the dialog box to locate your folder of stack images
created in step 1. This will insert the images in sequence in a presentation
one per slide. On my current version it seems that the slides are created in
a new presentation which can be saved and copied into the main presentation
you are working on.
3. You can delete the folder containing the images now.
4. To scroll interactively during the slide show the arrow keys on the
keyboard seem the best option. This allows far more interactive control than
an embedded video.

Obviously, if the stack has many slices the number of slides will be great
but as long as the images are not excessively sized and have been inserted
in a compressed format the file-size doesn't end up excessive.

Hope this helps,

Julian

If you are using an older verson of PPt, you can get into trouble when you
try to show such a sequence from a flash drive on another computer. This
is because PPt seems to refer to locatons for video files, rather than
incorporating them into the presentation directly. One solution is to
save the sequence as an animated .gif, which is incorporated directly into
the powerpoint.
