Lightening video in PowerPoint presentation 1

[osp001]

I have a video I want to show in "PowerPoint." Unfortunately, it's too dark. When I use the image adjustment widget in PowerPoint, the first scene is exactly where it needs to be- but the rest of the video is way too dark.

Is there any way to change this in PowerPoint or, if not, how can I lighten the entire video for better display? Thanks!

If you have xp try Windows Movie Maker to edit the video..

Start :: programs :: accessories

when you insert a video clip into powerpoint, powerpoint will display the 1st frame as an 'image' in powerpoint. The image adjustment tool is only changing that 1st frame image and not the whole video.

Therefore you need to edit the video using a video editor (premiere, etc)
