Finding embedded PPT Sound files for editing

[g0vtmule]

Hello



I have a PPT that was provided to me that we need to edit. It looks as if it was saved as html because i have a .htm, .jpg, .gif associated with every slide and a series of sound00x.wav files that represent the narrations.

If we run this as a slide show, the audio (narration) is present where it should be, and I can correlate an individual .wav file with the 3 or 4 slides is spans across in the presentation. However, I cannot use the ppt tools to edit the sound clips. There is no sound icon and I cannot find a way to access the sound files - other than to edit them in a separate audio editor.

Questions:
1. Is there a way to find the link (I'm assuming there is an embedded link in the slides that point top the associated .wav file) How do i access that?

2. Upon editing / saving a new .wav file, and inserting it back into the slide, will the old audio still play, and if so, how do I disable it and/or break the link.

I have nearly 200 slides and 40+ sound00x.wav files that span across the slide deck, any simplified ways to help recover will be greatly appreciated.


Thanks in advance

As an update....

I found in the Animations section / Transition Sound. If I look at the drop down selection I will find the corresponding audio file name, however, I cannot find any of these files (an example of one is 182-192.aif) I have searched the comp and no luck finding the file. I suspect this .aif is associated with one of the .wav files, as I can count the number of files in the drop down and there are same number of .wav files, I'm just surprised they are not named the same. There are also selections in the transition sound drop down such as Chime, Cash Register and Drum Roll - which I suspect are standard issue with PPT.

At least now I know how to remove the existing audio track from a slide or set of slides by selecting No Sound and adding a new sound clip to the slide

Can you save as a pptx file?
