PPT 2013 Conversion: WMA Audio Files

[Guest]

Hello-

I do a number of narrated PowerPoint conversions into SWF-created Captivate files.  With the recent upgrade to PowerPoint 2013 for Microsoft PCs, I've noticed that the narrated audio is no longer being converted on Captivate's end because it is WMA format.  Do you know of any setting within PowerPoint 2013 or Captivate that will allow WMA files to be allowed or converted to a whitelisted format?

Thanks,

~Kyle~

Hello Kyle,

Welcome to Adobe Forums!

I am afraid that you can only insert audio files with .wav and.mp3 extensions .

If you want to insert your .wma format files you can use Adobe Media Encoder to convert it to mp3 or .wav.

Adobe Media Encoder gets installed with Captivate.

Thanks and Regards

Thanks for your reply.  I must ask your team to consider plugging Captivate to allow for conversions of the new type of PowerPoint (2013), otherwise the program does lose some significant functionality for many academics who use it to make their lectures more widely accessible.
