Supported video formats, video codecs and audio codecs in all PowerPoint versions
Supported video formats, video codecs and audio codecs in all PowerPoint versions
To conclude, this overview table shows all supported video and audio file formats for each PowerPoint version for Windows over the years.
If your clip is in one of the formats listed in the table, there’s a high chance that it’ll work fine in PowerPoint 2007 up to 2016. Nevertheless, compressing & converting your videos as mentioned above will allow you to use them more easily.
Please note that if you’re on a Mac, it’s best to convert videos to MP4 where the video and audio are H.264 and AAC encoded. Clipchamp offers a number of suitable output presets under Mobile or Web. You can also convert a video to WMV on your Mac.
Even though newer Office versions can handle video much better than their predecessors, movie files bring inherent challenges with them that Clipchamp is able to help with, such as getting them in the right format, using the right video & audio codecs and reducing their file size.
