PPTX File Type Extension Options and Conversions

At the top, name the media type (e.g., PPTX). Add an optional Description (e.g., Oral Presentation). Next, choose an icon the presenters will see in the Portal for the media type (e.g., a laptop for a presentation). 

PowerPoint or PPTX has the most File Type extension (or convert) options including HTML5, IMG, MP4, and Video On Demand. File Type extensions are an OPTIONAL media type conversion each association may choose if they have very specific needs (not necessarily needed).  

PPTX to IMG: This option is for large 1-page ePosters converted to a high resolution
PPTX to MP4: If the PPTX is video-heavy, this may be a good option
PPTX to Video On Demand: This option allows attendees to consume the video on a player after the presentation
PPTX to HTML5: This is an option, but it is not recommended. The conversion process is long and some elements in PPTX don’t always convert to HTML5

After PPTX, the options are PDF, MP4, MP3, and IMG.
– PDF IMG (hi-resolution) converts to a high-resolution image (mainly for ePosters)
MP4 Video On Demand allows attendees to watch the video at any time

If checked, the Conversion Success flag gives the administrator more information about how the file is converted. Save when finished. 

 NOTE: Admins can create multiple media file types to accommodate the meeting (e.g., one media type may be a PPTX, and another media type might be a PDF handout).
