Content: For newer versions of PowerPoint (2013, 2016) on both Windows and Mac, convert your videos using the “Web” output option on Clipchamp, which will produce MP4 video files. To get even smaller videos, use the “Mobile” output option. 5. 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. You can also use a third party to create custom presentations with your exported videos for you. Powerpoint Version
