loop continuously a series os images in a slide in PowerPoint 2010

well, FWIW:

I had 17 photos I wanted to loop at the top of the presentation.  I set up a slide show (use whatever app you want) then recorded the slideshow with a screen capture program.

Save as a wmv or mp4, then just add as a movie.  You can set the movie to continually loop until clicking for the next slide.

make the slide to loop a one slide custom show (Slide show >Custom shows > new) and give it an auto transition of zero seconds. If you set the presentation to loop then that slide will loop if you use an action button to jump to the custom show,

Chirag is offering an AddIn that will create looped animations. To make existing animations loop there are only two ways I know.

1. Make the whole slide loop as a custom show. This will only work if you want ALL animations on the slide to loop
2. Write code to modify each of the animations you need to loop. This is not trivial coding and unless you are very familiar with how PowerPoint animation code works is likely to be above you. I doubt anyone here can talk you through it though they may be able to do it for you (probably not free)

You can make the slide a custom show and loop it. If you wnt to make the pictures really loop on one slide the only way is to recode the animations with vba. We have an AddIn that does this for you if you don't code but it isn't free sadly!

What do you want your images to do? It seems to me that it would be a lot easier if you were to put each image onto a single slide and then set up your show to loop continuously until you press 'Esc'.
