PowerPoint movies created on PowerPoint for Mac do not support every feature or option in PowerPoint. Specifically:
Slide to Slide navigation will be lost, unless programmed using buttons.
No navigation between slides.
Most transitions are lost.
If you are creating a presentation that you want to deliver as a PowerPoint Movie, follow these rules to make sure that all of the elements of your presentation appear the way you expect in your PowerPoint Movie.
Use a single slide master. For presentations that use multiple slide masters, only the first title master and the first slide master used in the presentation will be used for all slides in the PowerPoint Movie.
Add navigation buttons to the slide master. If you want to control your PowerPoint Movie by advancing the presentation one slide at a time, add an action button to the slide master that hyperlinks to the next slide.
Avoid certain hyperlinks and action settings. The following hyperlinks and action settings are not supported in PowerPoint Movies:
All Mouse Over action settings
Hyperlink to Last Slide Viewed
Hyperlink to End Show
Hyperlink to Custom Show
