Rehan I've seen you mention Producer a couple of times in response to such posts. From what I can see, in Producer, the publishing feature only converts the video and audio to WMV format, not the Powerpoint presentation. The presentation is in a separate frame on a webpage. Have I missed something here?

As Rehan mentioned in his post, you can just record the powerpoint presentation (and any other programs you are using) using Producer's screen capture function (much the same as Windows Media Encoder). The screen capture codec seems to be very good - sharp images with small file sizes. 8)

Did you try reducing the video hardware acceleration? That might help with screen capture. Otherwise I guess you have to - use a dedicated converter program if one exists - reduce the use of fast animations - use your video camera to film the screen or record the TV-out if you have one.

The BoundingRect parameter determines the placement of the text. I think what you want is to change the LogoRect parameter to full screen. <Param name="LogoRect" value="0 0 1 1"/>

I think there's something wrong with the LogoBitmapFilename parameter. I know Blaine has mentioned several times in this thread that you can use a full path name or relative to the Shared folder, but it doesn't seem to work with the full name here. Just try using the relative path "<b>AddOnTFX\Metroid-Eu-Logo.png</b>". I tried it with this XML and your image and it seemed to work ok. <TransitionsAndEffects Version="1.0"> <Titles> <TitleDLL ...

Glad to hear it now works for you. ;)

G'day Haas You'll have to explain what you are doing. Post your XML and say where you are putting your logo. It sounds like the path specified in your XML doesn't match where your logo actually is.

G'day Haas You should remove the parameter EffectID="{102BA5E7-886C-42a0-A32B-D564B22436CD}" which can confuse Movie Maker. This is probably not the major problem here - it's most likely the format or location of your logo. The XML you have used was my initial attempt when we were just starting with custom titles. Have you tried the instructions in <a href="http://www.rehanfx.org/customtc.htm">Rehan's article</a>?

Hi Blaine What you've done looks ok - let's hope it hasn't disrupted the space/time continuum too much.

So I just turn on the TV and there's a re-run of Doctor Who playing with an ABC watermark in the bottom right hand corner! ;-)
