DVD won’t play in a standalone player:
- Ensure you selected the correct region format (NTSC/PAL).
- Use a compatible DVD disc (DVD‑R commonly supported).

-
Embedded videos/audio missing:
- Make sure all media files are linked (not moved) and accessible during conversion.
- Re‑embed or re‑encode problematic media into PowerPoint before export.
-
Animations look choppy:
- Increase video bitrate or resolution.
- Use simpler animations or increase slide duration.
-
Licensing or activation errors (Edu Edition):
