Hi since so many come to CS for advice ..thought I would look here
Does anyone know how you can take images or even utube from the internet and show it on a screen via a power point projector without using microsoft office power point ......any leads would be greatly appreciated.
Oh and I am not very technology oriented so could you explain step by step
Hi Paulo thank you very much for your help will get the cable and ask technicians at work for the right outlets in lets etc.....will also check site you sent. Hmm one last question do you need to download any special programme?
If your PC has a video card that will take the S video connection then you may not require any further software as the computer should identify the video link and accept it as if it were a second screen.
If I get I right you want to show videos to an auditorium where no connection to Internet possible, correct?
May I know the reason you do not want to use Power Point? Much as I agree MS sucks its pretty easy and reliable. Anyway your choice. To save videos you need to go here
Once you have videos saved to your laptop and players installed, connect to projector. It will show anything you like as long as it is playing on the laptop.
Good luck.
PS If you want to make a smooth presentation with few videos and pics then you you better go here
and get it in, say, in divx format. This way you would be able to incorporate vids into a presentation program of your choice and spare the audience interruptions between vids.
